One thing I like about SW Ohio that doesn't get mentioned often (although it is in this video) is the fact that it's on the far western edge of the Eastern Time Zone. So, we get later sunrise and later sunset times than a lot of people. For instance, in Boston today the sunrise was at 5:31 AM, in Cincinnati it was 6:30 AM. Sunset in Boston is expected to be at 7:51 PM and in Cincinnati at 8:38 PM. Both cities are in the Eastern time zone, but Boston is on the east side of the time zone and Cincinnati is on the extreme west of the time zone. At the height of summer we have a long stretch where the sunset is after 9 PM, and we never have to put up with sunlight waking us at 5:30 in the morning.
@@Robertocamero785 Interesting. I just consulted my largest map and it looks like all of Scotland is closer to the North Pole than any of the USA, except for Alaska, which must account for such long days. I assume your winters are the exact opposite with sunsets falling very early in the afternoon?
@williamsporing1500 Not it the city limits but it is a cincinnati suburb inside "Metro Cincinnati " and uses Cincinnati postal codes and it's residents are referred to as cincinnatians just like majority of cincinnati suburbs, so there was no need for correction. Everything I'm hamilton co is either cincinnati city or cincinnati suburbs so to sum it up, Sharonville is considered Cincinnati even though it's a few miles outside the city limits
I'm moving to Cincinnati this spring & your videos are highly informative. Thank you for the 'boots on the ground' content that I was looking for. If I was buying a house I would definitely contact you, but I am only looking for an apartment. Great stuff & I can't wait to move there from Buffalo!
Cincinnati is much better in the winter than what you are used to in Buffalo. Cincy folks will complain about the snow and you will think, “This is great!”
@@roberttroxell4006 As someone who has lived here my entire life, I can confirm this. People in Cincy see a few snowflakes and lose their damn minds trying to buy out the grocery store as if the apocalypse is coming, and people visiting from Cleveland and other cities up north (rightful) think people here are insane
I hope you didn't move here. The city is dead, most of the "fun" stuff is in Newport. City council gave up on really doing anything with the city, it's a tourist trap. Unless you're moving out to the suburbs, there are no safe neighborhoods within city limits.
Moved here from Dallas TX 6 yrs ago. Cheaper cost of living, historic sites, beautiful fall colors, no terrible traffic or toll roads, lower property taxes and insurance.....best decision ever!
Bootsy is great guy ! I did Stand Up for 20 years and he showed up at a benefit I did years ago. It was so cool, I did a tribute act to the late, great Sam Kinison and after the show Bootsy came running up to ME ? And I'll never forget he was emotional and nearly crying and he said "Man, that was eerie ! I was real good friends with Sam, we used to party together all the time and if I closed my eyes when you were doing your thing...I'd have sworn it was him !" He gave me his card, signed it and told me "If you ever wanna cut a comedy album call me, you can use my studio." I wish I'd took him up on it.
Your assessment of Cincinnati is spot on. The one thing I would add is the architecture and charm of downtown. It is something only a few cities in our country have (Charleston, SC). Cost of living is why I moved my family here 10 years ago. Gray long winters is my only real gripe.
Very informative...but you left out a couple things. Although it's true that sometimes winter comes in November...often it doesn't get really cold until January. I remember one Xmas when it got over 80 degrees and me and my cousins played basketball all day outside. Also a lot of times we get the bulk of snowfall in February / March, we've even got snow in April before. And if you've lived here as long as I have ( I'm 65 ) we seem to always have a "false spring" in February / March. It's 3 or 4 days to a week where the sun comes out, the temp goes into the 70's or 80's, everyone thinks it's spring...and the next week it's 18 degrees out with snow! That's the great thing about this area...if you like seeing the seasons change, at times you can experience all 4 of them in a 24 - 48 hour period. As far as sports, you left out NKU...they are now a Div. 1 program and always seem to have a good basketball program. As far as the Kelce's and Tayler "Twit", do what I did...IGNORE Travis and Taylor and only claim his brother Jason ! Also, as far as "Cincy Style" Chili...yes, it's weird if you're not from here...but everyone I've ever gotten to try it...it only took them tasting it one time to be hooked. My Wife is originally from South Carolina and lived in LA as well. The first time she came here to visit for a week, the first place I took her was Skyline, she liked it so well we must have eaten there 5 times that week, LOL ! Something else that I highly recommend is "Plesant Ridge Chili's " loaded fries....crisp French Fries cover in shredded Sharp Cheddar and Brown Gravy....mmmm, mmmm ! And you also forgot that aside from "Cincy Style" Chili ( which is actually a Greek Hamburger soup ) what we are known for is Pork and Beer. The nickname for Cincy is "Porkopolis" because at one time we were the U.S. largest producers of pork products especially Sausage. And although we don't have the number of pork producers and brewerys as we once did...we still are the home of "Kahn's" and still have some great Craft Breweries. I think the best description of the Cincy / NKY area is it has a small town feel with all the big town amenities. Also, if you travel ( I did Stand Up for 20 years ) it's in close proximity to so many big cities. I loved it because I could do shows in Dayton, Columbus, Lexington, Louisville and Indianapolis and come back home that night after the show because they are all within about a 100 mile radius of Cincy. One other thing you briefly mentioned is our transit system...you were very generous with your comments. Frankly our transit system SUCKS ! I lived in Las Vegas for 3 years without a car...I never waited more than TEN minutes for a bus ! Yet, I worked a job in Elsmere, Ky. while living in Ludlow, Ky ( we're talking a 10 min. drive in your car ) it was a 9 -4 job...I had to leave my house by 7:45 am ...and I often wouldn't get home until nearly 6 pm because I had to transfer and the bus driver from Florence to Cincy was ALWAYS late getting to the terminal and I'd miss the connecting bus from the terminal to Ludlow. I've taken public transit all over the country and our transit sytem is by far the WORST ! Other than that Cincy is great...this area ( I'm including NKY ) is clean, the people are friendly. you have good schools, great healthcare and if you can't find something to do here you're within an hour, hour and a half drive of Indy, Dayton, Columbus, Lexington and Louisville...not to mention the Casinoes in Lawrenceburg and Miami Valley !
@@TeamSztanyo You're welcome...one more tip...there always seems to be gridlock on I-75 at Paddock Rd, exit and in NKY Buttermilk Pike exit. P.S. For those allergies, take a tablespoon of raw, locally sourced Honey ( there's a great little farm that has an aviary and sells fresh honey in West Chester ) every morning and some Flaxseed oil. Trust me, for years like clockwork every May / June ragweed allergy would kill me...then August / September I'd suffer from Hay Fever...I started doing this and I never get either anymore ! But you have to let it build up in your system and the honey has to be locally sourced. when you think about it, it makes perfect sense, the allergy is caused by pollen, allergy shots are small amounts of that pollen designed to make your body develop antibodies to that pollen. The locally sourced honey is made from that same pollen...so it's like a natural allrgy shot.
Born and raised in the south most of my life. Moved to Cincinnati almost 2 yrs. ago from Ft. Lauderdale, FL. I don't mind the cold at all-I think the winters are beautiful. I love the architecture & history here. The city is beautiful nestled in the big hills. Love the small town feel. Everyone is sooo nice! However... the food here is terrible. Skyline chile is disgusting. I did try it when I first came here-never will again. Never had Gold Star -don't want to. I'm from New Orleans, I have high food standards pertaining to spice & flavor. My husband loves the sports. I don't care, I don't like sports. Trees, I love the trees. There are so many trees. There's so much green space-fantastic for mental health!!!
I've lived in the Cincinnati area for several decades, I used to eat Skyline Chilli at least once a week. Now I prefer Gold Star Chilli. Also we have Dixie Chilli in Northern KY, and also there is Empress Chilli. It is understandable that some people won't like Cincinnati style chilli. Another Cincinnati favorite is goetta, I can't stand that. suum cuique.
I grew up there - people do not say "What?" they say "Please?" (It's from German.) You can probably handle that after a while - and the snow . *Worry about the summer humidity instead.*
I live in northern Ohio, I wasn't really familiar with Cincinnati until my son was in school there. Cincinnati is actually really well put together while having a cool randomness to it. The downtown area is really accessible to walking and some biking, The Connector make traversing parts of the city great. Being used to Cleveland and Toledo, I can tell you that Cincinnati is way prettier and more geared towards it's residents in general instead of just focusing on a couple of things (Cleveland IE Browns/Cavs).
I moved to Covington in 1980, from Pittsburgh Pa. The winters in the Cincinnati area are a lot better than Pgh! However, the summers are a lot hotter. But being 64, I'll take that! I could never move back there. I love this area!
Just visited Cincinnati from Louisville and Cincy is SO BEAUTIFUL! The Waterfront, Downtown, the Hills, everything I wish Louisville was! Legal Weed, everyone seemed friendly and helpful, property taxes are lower.
WE moved to Cinci about 20 yrs ago and love it here. I agree with most of his points, but sports are not as big a deal as he is implying. FC Cinci won the Supporter Shield Cup which translates to winning the regular season so that was big. One thing we found weird was the clinging to HighSchool Identity. When meeting people for 1st time they always ask what HS we went to , In Northern Illinois no one cared about Highschool once you were an adult. A lot of adults walk around in Highschool team sports stuff. Weird.
We just use that to find out what part of town you're from. Each community has it's own mini culture so it's just a quick way to get to know you better. As far as wearing local high school gear, it's more to support the community.
People from Chicago city proper still ask what high others went to. Even though I went in the suburbs as well. But high schools are part of the conversations.
Interesting. Just wanted to point out though, the longest days are in June and July. Not July and August. June 20 or 21 is the longest day, and the days get shorter either side of it.
We also have great drag shows here in Cincinnati and amazing night club shows. Drag queens, burlesque and variety shows are really up and coming. I know quite a few people who've come here just to see our shows. I never really think of it as a sports town for some reason lol
really enjoyed this. born in cincy in 1954, moved to miami in 1957. but raised by cincy parents and grandparents and really love my values and midwestern roots. you are a cool guy.
I’m eyeing a move to Cincinnati next year as an international student from Ghana. Where in Cincinnati do you think would be the best place to stay and start life as a young man?
Addicted to Skyline Chilli and lived during the Big Red Machine, Cincinnati is Kahns hot dogs, breweries, Jeff Ruby and so much more! Live 60 miles from Cincinnati, but many great memories of the city.
I remeber and note this video about moving to Cincinnati, I kive in newoorrt KY so I'll think about it, might not can handle the winter seasons there like over here in Newport KY! 😁
My mom was born and raised in Norwood, I grew up in Warren county and when I stayed with friends and they served chili I wondered where is the spaghetti and cheese was?
This is a good video! Pretty darn spot on! Don’t worry about all the know it all haters in the comments. You’re not doing it for them anyway. Take care and keep grinding for our city, man.
Born in Cincy and spent my entire life here, and I guess I'm the outlier because I hate the chili, have zero interest in sports, and have never driven a car or felt the need to in any of the various suburbs I've lived in. The bus has never been more than a mile away from where I lived.
My memories about the city are more positive than the reality of the present. It is now a blue city with disturbing crime rates, public schools are struggling, some corruption in politics, current sports teams are average.
Recording at newport on the levee in Kentucky, while talking about cinci, nice spot choice view from that area is great around sunset, he's not wrong about what he talks about, but crime is on the rise in the area but thats any where these days, as for covington,ky metioned in the comments, be careful in that area as well
@@TeamSztanyo single white latino guy. 57. Retired professional. I would be looking forward to the baseball and opera in Cincinnati. Old Architecture is another draw for me. What about Mount Adams?
Rosemary Clooney is George’s AUNT not mom. We also can claim Sarah Jessica Parker and Doris Day as well as many others. Cincinnati is The biggest small town in America and we aren’t about labels. Show off on vacation but don’t do it here or you’re gonna be judged for it. Be real. We value that here instead. If you’re flashy we are going to think your credit poor. You left out cicadas every 7 years though I’ve found that to be a joke the last few cycles. As for the winter…it’s atlanta weather -10 so just don’t be a wimp and you’ll be fine.
Not claiming Travis Kelce is wild! I just visited Cincy from Louosville and it seems like everything I wish Louisville was. Pretty Downtown, Great Waterfront, Legal Cannabis, everyone seemed friendly in Cincy, Newport, Covington, etc. Im ready to sell my 5 bed 3 full bath house in Louisville and Move there. Im a Casino Card dealer outside Louisville at Caesars and the Hard Rock dealers tood me their pay which is $5/hr higher. And Cincy is similar cost of living to Louisville. I have about $180,000 equity in my Louisville Home (technically Southern Indiana). I wanna sell and move to Cincinatti - City of 7 Hills
You might need a jacket in the Fall - my son visited from Tampa in October and thought 65 degrees was “freezing!” You get used to it and winters are not near as cold and snowy as they were decades ago.
As a 50 year Cincinnati resident, don’t move to Cincinnati. Move to one of the suburbs outside the 275 loop. I actually moved across the river and have never regretted it. The current government in cincy is doing its best to make it a little Chicago. So if you want peace, move outside the 275 belt and stay out of the city.
I lived in Cincy for 11 yrs, and that summer humidity was brutal. It was the city where I began having allergy headaches. Became a Steelers fan while living in Cincy. I never became a Skyline chili junkie. Lived in Fairfield and Avondale. I remember a terrible snowfall, when GE AEBG closed for 1-2 days, which was a first in its' history.
Missed one: "Cincinnati has a crime rate of 4593 per 100,000 people, which surpasses the national average by 97.6%, leading to one of the highest total crime rates in the United States."
Every city has really safe areas and not so safe areas. Stick to the better areas, especially at night. Don’t get involved with drugs, you will be fine.
Born and raised in the cincy area. Current council is doing its best to make it just like Chicago. After 50 years, I moved across the river and never regretted it.
I hate winter. I live up the road in Dayton which, by the way, is the birthplace of Martin Sheen. Regardless…Cincinnati is pretty cool city IMHO. I wish the city would have kept one of the five rail inclines for posterity’s sake. It was only within the last year or so I discovered this along with the abandoned subway. Now that I’m retired I have been making short trips to the Queen City. Keep it classy Cincinnati!!
Tyrone Power was from Cincy. Speaking of Springer, when he was part of Cincinnati City Council there was a motel called President's Inn in Northern KY that was a thinly veiled whorehouse. Jerry wrote a CHECK, on he and his Wife's JOINT ACCOUNT that BOUNCED...and he was bounced from city council. I did Stand Up for 20 years and one of my jokes i did year ago was "What's the difference between Jerry Springer and Ted Kennedy ?" "Jerry gets his women over the river !"
My fiance and I are thinking of moving there. We currently live in San Diego and young couples can't buy a home and start a family due to how expensive it is here. I am a middle school teacher and she is a nurse. I have 2 main questions if anyone can give their thoughts. 1) What is the quality of life for teachers and nurses (some places don't treat their public servants well). 2) Based on those two careers' salaries, can we buy a house in a good, fun neighborhood? Thnaks!
Yes, it is much cheaper to live in Cincinnati or Northern Kentucky. I am teacher who owns a nice house with one salary. We have four seasons which is nice. The drawback is you have better mild weather in San Diego. If you can't handle humidity or get allergies from pollen it could be an issue for you.
1. I have several friends who are teachers and almost all of them own their own homes. They have all been teaching for a while, so that does make a difference. Compared to where you're coming from this probably won't matter but housing prices have skyrocketed in the past few years. I would say it's still not comparable in price to the most popular areas of California, but it is less affordable than it used to be. 2. I don't, unfortunately, know any RNs so I can't tell you what that community is like. What I can tell you is we are spoiled for choice when it comes to medical centers and hospitals.
What will really make us stand out in the US is cleaning up that spaghetti mess of highway exits and entrances downtown and building out light rail finally. MetroMoves would have been completed this year… but the second best time to start is now
Moved to NYC at age 24, would never ever move back. The KENWOOD MALL is the best shopping now? Mall shopping? Why don't you do something to spiff up downtown? Cmon, it has been decades!
Spiff up Downtown??? It has been spiffed beyond spifftivity. Cincinnati is, what it is. A Midwestern city of 2 Million metro. It will never be as densely populated or have the same amenities as New York City. But the rent isn't $3500 for a 500 sqft apartment either. There's very little you can get in the positive from New York that you can't get in Cincinnati.
Because City Council is a bunch of imbeciles. Think about it...YEARS ago they lost money to Florence Mall, Swifton Commons etc. WHY? For the same reason no one shops downtown now....why would anyone PAY a war pension to park in crime ridden downtown Cincy...when they can park for FREE and shop at the same stores in a local mall ?
Doris Day is from Cincinnati! And Rosemary Clooney was George Clooney's aunt, not mother. A lot of movies are also being filmed here over the last decade with Cate Blanchet, Bruce Willis, and many others. But the winter is yuck yuck yuck.
Good thing you left out Jerry Springer. We disowned him decades ago. If you’re into biking, hiking, kayaking, running, boating, camping, dogs, fishing and hunting, there is a whole lot to do here.
I drove to Cincinnati and stayed overnight for the solar eclipse. The next day drove closer to Richmond, IN. So I did a little tour downtown and wanted to visit this Finlay Market. I got there after 4 and was closed. The surrounding neighborhood was straight outa an episode of Homocide. I'm from Baltimore and know a sketch neighborhood when I see one. Got the hell outa there toot sweet.
LOL, you were right ! The problem with this area IF you aren't familiar with it ( and I'm talking about Cincy and NKY ) is you can go 5 blocks and be in a neighborhood as safe as Ft. Knox, then the next 10 blocks is the "Hood" or "The Barrio". You need to make yourself aware of the area..because 90% of the crimes occur in about 5% of the city. When I lived in Las Vegas...if you were in Vegas "proper" ( very close to the strip ) NO CRIME happened because the casinos were ran by the Mob and if you came into that area and started shit...you'd end up buried in the desert where no one would ever find you. You didn't venture out to North Vegas at night because THAT was "Gang - Central". Basically, if you stay in the suburbs, it's very safe here...just stay away from certain areas like Downtown.
This fellow claims that winter days are shorter in Cincinnati. Actually, winter days are 75 minutes longer in Cincinnati than in NYC to its western position. Sunrise is 15’ later, but sunset is 90’ later.
Cincinnati is known for the riverfront's beauty, or at least it should be. - the Library, or it should be. - the University AND the medical education there - or it SHOULD be., also classical music. This video? Sports and food -SOME food. Disappointing. La Rosa's pizza, why the silence?
Saying that Cincinnati was the butt of national jokes far overstates how much Cincinnati was on the nation's mind. A curious combination of inferiority and inflation!😂
Cincinatti at 39 degrees north. «The winter days will be short» Buhu! I have lived at 40 degrees north, and short winter days wasn’t a problem. Come to my place at 60 degrees north in Norway and try to complain about that😂
Pretty limited description. I would suggest learning more about the city before trying to sell it. Where's the mention of the arts community? Music, Theater, art, these all have a significant presence here, one that is greater than you would expect in a city this size. What about the green spaces? We have an abundance of those. Every neighborhood has at least one, and there are several that are large enough to get lost in. Then there are the festivals, some large enough to pull in over a million people from around the country. The history here is pretty significant as well. As for famous people, I suggest you go to Wikipedia, the list is far more extensive than the ones you mentioned. Rosemary Clooney, by the way, is George Clooney's aunt. His parents are Nick and Nina Clooney; Nick Clooney is a highly respected former news anchor.
The public transportation in Cincinnati is very poor. That's due to the backwards attitude and strong segregation of the city. They killed the Green Light rail system in 1999 because the suburbanites didn't want "undesirables" in their neighborhood. The lack of inner city rail in Cincy is a joke. That's another thing, Cincy is a very divided city.
@@TeamSztanyo Great question. Western cities like Denver, Phoenix, and Salt Lake City are some examples off the top of my head. Don't get me wrong, I love my city. But I also had to learn to acknowledge its shortcomings. The truth was a very hard pill for me to swallow.
It's not chocolate 😂 Gold star is Skylines competition and they put cinnamon in the chili..it's better....don't knock something u ain't tried and please gt it right b4 u post..
@@jesscuzican5153 Actually they both put cinnamon in their chili...and while both are good,,,I prefer Dixie Chili over them, Price Hill Chili is good too.Gold Star has a good flavor but for me both Gold Star and Skyline are too runny. I loved Empress too...but I think only one location is open. Gourmet Chili in Newport is good too....BUT it's worth going there for their breakfast special Bacon, Sausage, Ham or Goetta, 3 Eggs, a big serving of really good, crispy Hashbrowns, 2 pieces of buttered Toast..and I think it's like $7 ! They also serve one of the best Gyros you can find in around here.
Stop comparing Cincinnati to New York Los Angeles Chicago they are not comparable cities compared to like Baltimore or Portland Maine Madison Wisconsin those kinds of cities compared to you can't compare Cincinnati to New York or Atlanta or Los Angeles or San Francisco they're too big this is not a big city like those compared to cities that are are in the same size around that area not compared to New York nobody cannot do New York or Los Angeles or Chicago
Are you really from Cincy? I question. Rosemary is not George's mom. Nick is. Don Dahlman, my former neighbor on Hickory Hill, began the Nick Clooney and Phil Donahue show. Ron Sibcy is married to Paul Dixon's daughter of the Paul Dixon show. He married the chickens. Try to gain some history of your area. Multi Media/Channel 5 was a trend setter.
Don't forget Bob Braun, Ruth Lyons, Skipper Ryle, Uncle Al, The "Cool Ghoul", Bob Shreve, Al Schotellkotte, Bill Hemmer, Bob Holtzman, Jerry Springer...and on the negative side serial killers Charles Manson and Donald Harvey ! Musicians like Bootsy Collins...James Brown cut his first recording in a studio on Reading Rd. The actor Tyrone Powers was from here. In sports Barry Larkin, Ken Griffey Jr., Pete Rose, Oscar Robertson, Dave Cowens ( Newport, KY ) David Justice ( Covington ) Brian Pillman ( NFL and WWF ) etc.
Wow, I'm shocked to hear that I never found out till now that Nick Clooney was the first man to become a mother ! Nick was George's DAD, Rosemary was his Aunt.
@@MegaFirstclass I met Nick Clooney as well ( before he got "woke" ) met him Bob Braun, Uncle Al, Skipper Ryle, Paul Dixon, Donahue...my Mom and sisters used to go to all their shows. I also worked for Storer Cable in the 80's and I was honored to work with one of my childhood idols "The Cool Ghoul" himself, Dick Von Hoene who was the Storer Cable newscast Anchorman at the time. He was a wonderful guy !
@@TeamSztanyo the democrats that run downtown. I don't live in Cincinnati city limits, I live in Clermont county(next door) to Hamilton County which is where Cincy is. High crime in the city.
When I was a kid, we would have at least one snow that was big enough to build decent snowmen and go sledding. Snow would stick around for a few days and it would still be warm enough to go outside and play. I haven't seen that in the past 10 years.
Cincinnati is definitely to expensive the restaurants closes early the rent is extremely to expensive so if your not a 6 figure person you won’t make it here I’m relocating
Basically Cincinnati is home of mediocre sports teams, second rate colleges and a third rate airport. Our weather is better than many but too cold in the winter and too hot in the summer. It's a great place to be FROM as in the Clooneys, Steven Spielberg, Roy Rogers and all four of my children and one grand child. Cincinnati is a city of neighborhoods of which the joker who narrated this video is clueless - if it's not Hyde Park, Oakley (home of another ex-Cincinnati person) or Mason this guy doesn't care.
Rosemary is George’s aunt! Nick is his dad, local TV guy forever! All 3 are from Maysville,KY!

Bootsy Collins from the Funkadelics is from Cincinnati 😊
Bootsy is great guy ! I did Stand Up for 20 years and he showed up at a benefit I did years ago. It was so cool, I did a tribute act to the late, great Sam Kinison and after the show Bootsy came running up to ME ? And I'll never forget he was emotional and nearly crying and he said "Man, that was eerie ! I was real good friends with Sam, we used to party together all the time and if I closed my eyes when you were doing your thing...I'd have sworn it was him !" He gave me his card, signed it and told me "If you ever wanna cut a comedy album call me, you can use my studio." I wish I'd took him up on it.
By the way, James Brown made his first recording in a little studio on Reading Rd.
I don't know how he forgot.... nevermind.
Jammed with him back in the day. Actually, almost got arrested with him once too lol
There’s been a lot of good musicians come from this area
Your assessment of Cincinnati is spot on. The one thing I would add is the architecture and charm of downtown. It is something only a few cities in our country have (Charleston, SC). Cost of living is why I moved my family here 10 years ago. Gray long winters is my only real gripe.
thanks! yes, the architecture and charm are excellent.
This!! Props to the vid. Everything on point. Always a break away during President weekend in Feb….
moved to covington this year. very surprised how walkable it is! no major highways in my way between here and cincinnati.
It's a gem.
Very informative...but you left out a couple things. Although it's true that sometimes winter comes in November...often it doesn't get really cold until January. I remember one Xmas when it got over 80 degrees and me and my cousins played basketball all day outside. Also a lot of times we get the bulk of snowfall in February / March, we've even got snow in April before. And if you've lived here as long as I have ( I'm 65 ) we seem to always have a "false spring" in February / March. It's 3 or 4 days to a week where the sun comes out, the temp goes into the 70's or 80's, everyone thinks it's spring...and the next week it's 18 degrees out with snow! That's the great thing about this area...if you like seeing the seasons change, at times you can experience all 4 of them in a 24 - 48 hour period.
As far as sports, you left out NKU...they are now a Div. 1 program and always seem to have a good basketball program. As far as the Kelce's and Tayler "Twit", do what I did...IGNORE Travis and Taylor and only claim his brother Jason !
Also, as far as "Cincy Style" Chili...yes, it's weird if you're not from here...but everyone I've ever gotten to try it...it only took them tasting it one time to be hooked. My Wife is originally from South Carolina and lived in LA as well. The first time she came here to visit for a week, the first place I took her was Skyline, she liked it so well we must have eaten there 5 times that week, LOL ! Something else that I highly recommend is "Plesant Ridge Chili's " loaded fries....crisp French Fries cover in shredded Sharp Cheddar and Brown Gravy....mmmm, mmmm ! And you also forgot that aside from "Cincy Style" Chili ( which is actually a Greek Hamburger soup ) what we are known for is Pork and Beer. The nickname for Cincy is "Porkopolis" because at one time we were the U.S. largest producers of pork products especially Sausage. And although we don't have the number of pork producers and brewerys as we once did...we still are the home of "Kahn's" and still have some great Craft Breweries.
I think the best description of the Cincy / NKY area is it has a small town feel with all the big town amenities. Also, if you travel ( I did Stand Up for 20 years ) it's in close proximity to so many big cities. I loved it because I could do shows in Dayton, Columbus, Lexington, Louisville and Indianapolis and come back home that night after the show because they are all within about a 100 mile radius of Cincy. One other thing you briefly mentioned is our transit system...you were very generous with your comments. Frankly our transit system SUCKS ! I lived in Las Vegas for 3 years without a car...I never waited more than TEN minutes for a bus ! Yet, I worked a job in Elsmere, Ky. while living in Ludlow, Ky ( we're talking a 10 min. drive in your car ) it was a 9 -4 job...I had to leave my house by 7:45 am ...and I often wouldn't get home until nearly 6 pm because I had to transfer and the bus driver from Florence to Cincy was ALWAYS late getting to the terminal and I'd miss the connecting bus from the terminal to Ludlow. I've taken public transit all over the country and our transit sytem is by far the WORST ! Other than that Cincy is great...this area ( I'm including NKY ) is clean, the people are friendly. you have good schools, great healthcare and if you can't find something to do here you're within an hour, hour and a half drive of Indy, Dayton, Columbus, Lexington and Louisville...not to mention the Casinoes in Lawrenceburg and Miami Valley !
Thanks for sharing. Great additional insight!!
@@TeamSztanyo You're welcome...one more tip...there always seems to be gridlock on I-75 at Paddock Rd, exit and in NKY Buttermilk Pike exit.
P.S. For those allergies, take a tablespoon of raw, locally sourced Honey ( there's a great little farm that has an aviary and sells fresh honey in West Chester ) every morning and some Flaxseed oil. Trust me, for years like clockwork every May / June ragweed allergy would kill me...then August / September I'd suffer from Hay Fever...I started doing this and I never get either anymore ! But you have to let it build up in your system and the honey has to be locally sourced. when you think about it, it makes perfect sense, the allergy is caused by pollen, allergy shots are small amounts of that pollen designed to make your body develop antibodies to that pollen. The locally sourced honey is made from that same pollen...so it's like a natural allrgy shot.
Born and raised in the south most of my life. Moved to Cincinnati almost 2 yrs. ago from Ft. Lauderdale, FL.
I don't mind the cold at all-I think the winters are beautiful.
I love the architecture & history here. The city is beautiful nestled in the big hills.
Love the small town feel.
Everyone is sooo nice!
However... the food here is terrible. Skyline chile is disgusting. I did try it when I first came here-never will again. Never had Gold Star -don't want to. I'm from New Orleans, I have high food standards pertaining to spice & flavor.
My husband loves the sports. I don't care, I don't like sports.
Trees, I love the trees. There are so many trees. There's so much green space-fantastic for mental health!!!
I've lived in the Cincinnati area for several decades, I used to eat Skyline Chilli at least once a week. Now I prefer Gold Star Chilli. Also we have Dixie Chilli in Northern KY, and also there is Empress Chilli.
It is understandable that some people won't like Cincinnati style chilli. Another Cincinnati favorite is goetta, I can't stand that. suum cuique.
Thanks for sharing!
Try out swap water grill on the east side by Lunken airport.
Being from NYC...when i moved to Cincy, the weather is WELCOMED
I grew up there - people do not say "What?" they say "Please?"
(It's from German.)
You can probably handle that after a while - and the snow . *Worry about the summer humidity instead.*
We also ( not everybody..but most ) don't say Wash, we say Warsh, LOL
Or, we say "child, please" - Ocho
I live in northern Ohio, I wasn't really familiar with Cincinnati until my son was in school there. Cincinnati is actually really well put together while having a cool randomness to it. The downtown area is really accessible to walking and some biking, The Connector make traversing parts of the city great. Being used to Cleveland and Toledo, I can tell you that Cincinnati is way prettier and more geared towards it's residents in general instead of just focusing on a couple of things (Cleveland IE Browns/Cavs).
It is since it's been gentrified...wasn't always like this..
👆
I moved to Covington in 1980, from Pittsburgh Pa. The winters in the Cincinnati area are a lot better than Pgh! However, the summers are a lot hotter. But being 64, I'll take that! I could never move back there. I love this area!
You're not a Steeler fan, are you? 😂
@@mayavenuemisfit814 Of course!!!!!
@@greg2976 man, you steelers fans love coming in cincy....but well take ya, i guess! ;)
I'm from NE Ohio. I noticed the summers when I moved here. It's that Ohio Valley humidity.
Just visited Cincinnati from Louisville and Cincy is SO BEAUTIFUL! The Waterfront, Downtown, the Hills, everything I wish Louisville was! Legal Weed, everyone seemed friendly and helpful, property taxes are lower.
WE moved to Cinci about 20 yrs ago and love it here. I agree with most of his points, but sports are not as big a deal as he is implying. FC Cinci won the Supporter Shield Cup which translates to winning the regular season so that was big. One thing we found weird was the clinging to HighSchool Identity. When meeting people for 1st time they always ask what HS we went to , In Northern Illinois no one cared about Highschool once you were an adult. A lot of adults walk around in Highschool team sports stuff. Weird.
this is true.
We just use that to find out what part of town you're from. Each community has it's own mini culture so it's just a quick way to get to know you better. As far as wearing local high school gear, it's more to support the community.
I noticed that pro basketball isn't covered. It's all college basketball.
People from Chicago city proper still ask what high others went to. Even though I went in the suburbs as well. But high schools are part of the conversations.
Interesting. Just wanted to point out though, the longest days are in June and July. Not July and August. June 20 or 21 is the longest day, and the days get shorter either side of it.
👍
We also have great drag shows here in Cincinnati and amazing night club shows. Drag queens, burlesque and variety shows are really up and coming. I know quite a few people who've come here just to see our shows.
I never really think of it as a sports town for some reason lol
Our plan is to come back to California to see family twice a year in July and Dec.-January in order to get out of the heat and a bit of the cold.
Good plan!
Compared to NYC, Chicago, SF etc...... it's wonderful to be in quiet, under the radar Cincinnati!!!!!
really enjoyed this. born in cincy in 1954, moved to miami in 1957. but raised by cincy parents and grandparents and really love my values and midwestern roots. you are a cool guy.
👊
I’m eyeing a move to Cincinnati next year as an international student from Ghana. Where in Cincinnati do you think would be the best place to stay and start life as a young man?
Awesome! Would need more info about your situation and what you’re looking for. Email me.
Addicted to Skyline Chilli and lived during the Big Red Machine, Cincinnati is Kahns hot dogs, breweries, Jeff Ruby and so much more! Live 60 miles from Cincinnati, but many great memories of the city.
I remeber and note this video about moving to Cincinnati, I kive in newoorrt KY so I'll think about it, might not can handle the winter seasons there like over here in Newport KY! 😁
The Isley Brothers are from Cincinnati as well. Lincoln Heights to be exact
My mom was born and raised in Norwood, I grew up in Warren county and when I stayed with friends and they served chili I wondered where is the spaghetti and cheese was?
This was actually very helpful and detailed, easy to understand, as I am thinking about relocating to Cincinnati, yikes Jersey Girl in Ohio LOL
This is a good video! Pretty darn spot on! Don’t worry about all the know it all haters in the comments. You’re not doing it for them anyway. Take care and keep grinding for our city, man.
👊
The arts are very strong here in Cincinnati, such as the performing arts, visual arts, theatre, etc.
All 3 of Ohios 3 big city’s are flying under the radar. Columbus and Cincinnati are very underrated.
Born in Cincy and spent my entire life here, and I guess I'm the outlier because I hate the chili, have zero interest in sports, and have never driven a car or felt the need to in any of the various suburbs I've lived in. The bus has never been more than a mile away from where I lived.
The bus system is great and getting better
The Metro sucks if you live out in Tri County.
No mention of the symphony? Opera? Broadway tours stop here, concerts???... WAY more than just sports
No argument from me. Just listing 5 things.
huge arts and music culture as well.
Do you have information on house rentals?
Yeah, we can help guide you.
My memories about the city are more positive than the reality of the present. It is now a blue city with disturbing crime rates, public schools are struggling, some corruption in politics, current sports teams are average.
#9 begs to differ 🐅
Recording at newport on the levee in Kentucky, while talking about cinci, nice spot choice view from that area is great around sunset, he's not wrong about what he talks about, but crime is on the rise in the area but thats any where these days, as for covington,ky metioned in the comments, be careful in that area as well
Technically, recording from Covington, but yes, great views from the Kentucky side!
Crime is out of Control all over the US. Its bad here also
@@horseplop9 honestly unless your in the suburbs....theres gonna be some crime.
We ❤️❤️Skyline Chilly‼️Hate “Goldstar”‼️
It’s so good
They have 12 adult book stores
They put the sin in Cincinnati
Ive never heard of one of them...I gotta explore more
🤔
I have lived in Cincinnati for the last 30 years and it's home now
Where should I live in Cincinnati if I’m only going to Uber around?
Would need to know more, but somewhere more central … Northside, OTR, Oakley, Newport, Covington
@@TeamSztanyo single white latino guy. 57. Retired professional. I would be looking forward to the baseball and opera in Cincinnati. Old Architecture is another draw for me.
What about Mount Adams?
@@durandaldevil mount adams is great man, awesome views too. kinda pricey for cincy tho.
You made this video the day before a big snowstorm in Cincinnati
☃️
Rosemary Clooney is George’s AUNT not mom. We also can claim Sarah Jessica Parker and Doris Day as well as many others.
Cincinnati is The biggest small town in America and we aren’t about labels. Show off on vacation but don’t do it here or you’re gonna be judged for it. Be real. We value that here instead. If you’re flashy we are going to think your credit poor.
You left out cicadas every 7 years though I’ve found that to be a joke the last few cycles.
As for the winter…it’s atlanta weather -10 so just don’t be a wimp and you’ll be fine.
👍
I've been to Cincinnati. Instead of saying "what" they say "please." I'm in New Jersey. Weird as hell. And they don't care about sports or food.
Don't care about sports or food ... please?
Lies ha
I don't care about cold. It would be a welcome change tbh. But how is the humidity? I've heard horror stories about the mosquitos also.
Depends on what you are comparing it too. Not nearly as humid or buggy as the south.
Not claiming Travis Kelce is wild!
I just visited Cincy from Louosville and it seems like everything I wish Louisville was. Pretty Downtown, Great Waterfront, Legal Cannabis, everyone seemed friendly in Cincy, Newport, Covington, etc. Im ready to sell my 5 bed 3 full bath house in Louisville and Move there. Im a Casino Card dealer outside Louisville at Caesars and the Hard Rock dealers tood me their pay which is $5/hr higher. And Cincy is similar cost of living to Louisville.
I have about $180,000 equity in my Louisville Home (technically Southern Indiana). I wanna sell and move to Cincinatti - City of 7 Hills
Hit me up. I’d love to help you find a home here, and I can refer you to a great agent in Louisville.
I’m looking to move to Cincinnati from Jacksonville FL any advice for me
Buy a coat and call us! 🤣
You might need a jacket in the Fall - my son visited from Tampa in October and thought 65 degrees was “freezing!” You get used to it and winters are not near as cold and snowy as they were decades ago.
Me too!! I’m leaving SC and heading to Ohio today
As a 50 year Cincinnati resident, don’t move to Cincinnati. Move to one of the suburbs outside the 275 loop.
I actually moved across the river and have never regretted it. The current government in cincy is doing its best to make it a little Chicago. So if you want peace, move outside the 275 belt and stay out of the city.
The winter? In Cincinnati?
I was living in my car at 16 through the winters of 77 and 78. Yes, there is winter here
@@williamsporing1500 there was winter here. Snow barely covers the ground now
@@kingokafor6215 17 inches in 24 hours, Ohio river froze that year and people were walking across it.
🥶
Cincinnati is legendary for its humidity too. Lol! 😂
true
I lived in Cincy for 11 yrs, and that summer humidity was brutal. It was the city where I began having allergy headaches. Became a Steelers fan while living in Cincy. I never became a Skyline chili junkie. Lived in Fairfield and Avondale. I remember a terrible snowfall, when GE AEBG closed for 1-2 days, which was a first in its' history.
Missed one: "Cincinnati has a crime rate of 4593 per 100,000 people, which surpasses the national average by 97.6%, leading to one of the highest total crime rates in the United States."
realestate.usnews.com/places/ohio/cincinnati/crime
Not really. Those are old rates. It's in the top 5 safest of the 40 Largest cities in America. Your wrong
Every city has really safe areas and not so safe areas. Stick to the better areas, especially at night. Don’t get involved with drugs, you will be fine.
Born and raised in the cincy area. Current council is doing its best to make it just like Chicago.
After 50 years, I moved across the river and never regretted it.
i was in cinncinti oihio
Sparky was my uncle. Those were the good old days.
I hate winter. I live up the road in Dayton which, by the way, is the birthplace of Martin Sheen. Regardless…Cincinnati is pretty cool city IMHO. I wish the city would have kept one of the five rail inclines for posterity’s sake. It was only within the last year or so I discovered this along with the abandoned subway. Now that I’m retired I have been making short trips to the Queen City. Keep it classy Cincinnati!!
🎩
So true about trying to put kids down before 8pm
The struggle is real
I think Jerry Springers from cinci? Phil Donahue
Former mayor
Many renown musicians from Cincy.. you sorta' didn't brag enough about the fantastic music scene
There USED to be a great music scene in Cincy, until iheart ruined everything.
There’s a LONG list of great musicians that are from this area.
👍
Jerry springer was a Celeb also
Legend
Tyrone Power was from Cincy. Speaking of Springer, when he was part of Cincinnati City Council there was a motel called President's Inn in Northern KY that was a thinly veiled whorehouse. Jerry wrote a CHECK, on he and his Wife's JOINT ACCOUNT that BOUNCED...and he was bounced from city council. I did Stand Up for 20 years and one of my jokes i did year ago was
"What's the difference between Jerry Springer and Ted Kennedy ?"
"Jerry gets his women over the river !"
Cincinnati is my hometown.
My fiance and I are thinking of moving there. We currently live in San Diego and young couples can't buy a home and start a family due to how expensive it is here. I am a middle school teacher and she is a nurse. I have 2 main questions if anyone can give their thoughts.
1) What is the quality of life for teachers and nurses (some places don't treat their public servants well).
2) Based on those two careers' salaries, can we buy a house in a good, fun neighborhood?
Thnaks!
1) Solid
2) 100%
www.cincinnatiexperience.com/
Yes, it is much cheaper to live in Cincinnati or Northern Kentucky. I am teacher who owns a nice house with one salary. We have four seasons which is nice. The drawback is you have better mild weather in San Diego. If you can't handle humidity or get allergies from pollen it could be an issue for you.
dont vote the same way then please! we dont want blue coming in here and ruining our prices as well.
@@b__w_4565so what you're saying is you don't understand supply and demand. Got it.
1. I have several friends who are teachers and almost all of them own their own homes. They have all been teaching for a while, so that does make a difference.
Compared to where you're coming from this probably won't matter but housing prices have skyrocketed in the past few years. I would say it's still not comparable in price to the most popular areas of California, but it is less affordable than it used to be.
2. I don't, unfortunately, know any RNs so I can't tell you what that community is like.
What I can tell you is we are spoiled for choice when it comes to medical centers and hospitals.
What will really make us stand out in the US is cleaning up that spaghetti mess of highway exits and entrances downtown and building out light rail finally. MetroMoves would have been completed this year… but the second best time to start is now
We shall see!
Moved to NYC at age 24, would never ever move back.
The KENWOOD MALL is the best shopping now? Mall shopping? Why don't you do something to spiff up downtown? Cmon, it has been decades!
Spiff up Downtown??? It has been spiffed beyond spifftivity. Cincinnati is, what it is. A Midwestern city of 2 Million metro. It will never be as densely populated or have the same amenities as New York City. But the rent isn't $3500 for a 500 sqft apartment either. There's very little you can get in the positive from New York that you can't get in Cincinnati.
Because City Council is a bunch of imbeciles. Think about it...YEARS ago they lost money to Florence Mall, Swifton Commons etc. WHY? For the same reason no one shops downtown now....why would anyone PAY a war pension to park in crime ridden downtown Cincy...when they can park for FREE and shop at the same stores in a local mall ?
@@bhillboy37 lol lies. nyc is world class, cincy is small time
Just stay in NY
@@MyKeeP81that's nice. Anyway…
Doris Day is from Cincinnati! And Rosemary Clooney was George Clooney's aunt, not mother. A lot of movies are also being filmed here over the last decade with Cate Blanchet, Bruce Willis, and many others. But the winter is yuck yuck yuck.

The winters aren't bad here. This guy must be from the south.

I used to live in Cincy, and the winters are brutal because of the windchill, aside from that it's a great place to live. I hope to move back soon.
Winters Are Pretty Mild These Days! Lol!

Cincinnati is the invisible city. It's easy to feel unseen here. You may not even notice this comment.
👀
Chili on spaghetti doesn't sound bad actually 🤤
Come on over my friend.
Good thing you left out Jerry Springer. We disowned him decades ago. If you’re into biking, hiking, kayaking, running, boating, camping, dogs, fishing and hunting, there is a whole lot to do here.
Disowned him for something that’s pretty tame by todays standards
Rosemary Clooney is George's aunt,not mom. They're from Kentucky anyway
Yeah, I messed that one up
I drove to Cincinnati and stayed overnight for the solar eclipse. The next day drove closer to Richmond, IN. So I did a little tour downtown and wanted to visit this Finlay Market. I got there after 4 and was closed. The surrounding neighborhood was straight outa an episode of Homocide. I'm from Baltimore and know a sketch neighborhood when I see one. Got the hell outa there toot sweet.
LOL, you were right ! The problem with this area IF you aren't familiar with it ( and I'm talking about Cincy and NKY ) is you can go 5 blocks and be in a neighborhood as safe as Ft. Knox, then the next 10 blocks is the "Hood" or "The Barrio". You need to make yourself aware of the area..because 90% of the crimes occur in about 5% of the city. When I lived in Las Vegas...if you were in Vegas "proper" ( very close to the strip ) NO CRIME happened because the casinos were ran by the Mob and if you came into that area and started shit...you'd end up buried in the desert where no one would ever find you. You didn't venture out to North Vegas at night because THAT was "Gang - Central". Basically, if you stay in the suburbs, it's very safe here...just stay away from certain areas like Downtown.
🌆
I'm born in Columbus Ohio,and live in Houston Texas, Ohio gets stupid cold..lol
These days, more and more people are happy for some cold.
This fellow claims that winter days are shorter in Cincinnati. Actually, winter days are 75 minutes longer in Cincinnati than in NYC to its western position. Sunrise is 15’ later, but sunset is 90’ later.
boom. roasted.
Cincinnati is Pedestrian friendly. 👍🏿💯
Cincinnati is known for the riverfront's beauty, or at least it should be.
- the Library, or it should be.
- the University AND the medical education there - or it SHOULD be., also classical music.
This video? Sports and food -SOME food. Disappointing. La Rosa's pizza, why the silence?
Saying that Cincinnati was the butt of national jokes far overstates how much Cincinnati was on the nation's mind. A curious combination of inferiority and inflation!😂
Boom. Roasted.
In Cincinnati, nobody cares about where you went to college or what you do for a living. They only care about where you went to high school.
There is some truth to this. Since this is a city where people put down roots, it's a fairly quick an easy identifier for locals.

Pretty limited description. I would suggest learning more about the city before trying to sell it.
Where's the mention of the arts community? Music, Theater, art, these all have a significant presence here, one that is greater than you would expect in a city this size.
What about the green spaces? We have an abundance of those. Every neighborhood has at least one, and there are several that are large enough to get lost in.
Then there are the festivals, some large enough to pull in over a million people from around the country.
The history here is pretty significant as well.
As for famous people, I suggest you go to Wikipedia, the list is far more extensive than the ones you mentioned.
Rosemary Clooney, by the way, is George Clooney's aunt. His parents are Nick and Nina Clooney; Nick Clooney is a highly respected former news anchor.
I shall double my efforts.
The public transportation in Cincinnati is very poor. That's due to the backwards attitude and strong segregation of the city. They killed the Green Light rail system in 1999 because the suburbanites didn't want "undesirables" in their neighborhood. The lack of inner city rail in Cincy is a joke. That's another thing, Cincy is a very divided city.
Which cities aren’t?
@@TeamSztanyo Great question. Western cities like Denver, Phoenix, and Salt Lake City are some examples off the top of my head.
Don't get me wrong, I love my city. But I also had to learn to acknowledge its shortcomings. The truth was a very hard pill for me to swallow.
just eat gold star chilli. skyline is disgusting. why would you put chocolate in chilli. it doesnt taste good at all.
Yet there are people who really like it.
@peterzavon3012 there are alot if gross people in the world for sure.
Dixie Chili is my favorite ! Gold Star has great Burgers and Chicken sandwiches though.
It's not chocolate 😂 Gold star is Skylines competition and they put cinnamon in the chili..it's better....don't knock something u ain't tried and please gt it right b4 u post..
@@jesscuzican5153 Actually they both put cinnamon in their chili...and while both are good,,,I prefer Dixie Chili over them, Price Hill Chili is good too.Gold Star has a good flavor but for me both Gold Star and Skyline are too runny. I loved Empress too...but I think only one location is open. Gourmet Chili in Newport is good too....BUT it's worth going there for their breakfast special Bacon, Sausage, Ham or Goetta, 3 Eggs, a big serving of really good, crispy Hashbrowns, 2 pieces of buttered
Toast..and I think it's like $7 ! They also serve one of the best Gyros you can find in around here.
Stop comparing Cincinnati to New York Los Angeles Chicago they are not comparable cities compared to like Baltimore or Portland Maine Madison Wisconsin those kinds of cities compared to you can't compare Cincinnati to New York or Atlanta or Los Angeles or San Francisco they're too big this is not a big city like those compared to cities that are are in the same size around that area not compared to New York nobody cannot do New York or Los Angeles or Chicago
Agree, not the same. But many people from larger cities enjoy moving here for the differences.

Are you really from Cincy? I question. Rosemary is not George's mom. Nick is. Don Dahlman, my former neighbor on Hickory Hill, began the Nick Clooney and Phil Donahue show. Ron Sibcy is married to Paul Dixon's daughter of the Paul Dixon show. He married the chickens. Try to gain some history of your area. Multi Media/Channel 5 was a trend setter.
Don't forget Bob Braun, Ruth Lyons, Skipper Ryle, Uncle Al, The "Cool Ghoul", Bob Shreve, Al Schotellkotte, Bill Hemmer, Bob Holtzman, Jerry Springer...and on the negative side serial killers Charles Manson and Donald Harvey ! Musicians like Bootsy Collins...James Brown cut his first recording in a studio on Reading Rd. The actor Tyrone Powers was from here. In sports Barry Larkin, Ken Griffey Jr., Pete Rose, Oscar Robertson, Dave Cowens ( Newport, KY ) David Justice ( Covington ) Brian Pillman ( NFL and WWF ) etc.
I met Clooney’s dad. :) I might be able to find the pic. Unrelated, I know haha.
Wow, I'm shocked to hear that I never found out till now that Nick Clooney was the first man to become a mother ! Nick was George's DAD, Rosemary was his Aunt.
@@MegaFirstclass I met Nick Clooney as well ( before he got "woke" ) met him Bob Braun, Uncle Al, Skipper Ryle, Paul Dixon, Donahue...my Mom and sisters used to go to all their shows.

Basically Cincinnati is home of mediocre sports teams, second rate colleges and a third rate airport. Our weather is better than many but too cold in the winter and too hot in the summer. It's a great place to be FROM as in the Clooneys, Steven Spielberg, Roy Rogers and all four of my children and one grand child. Cincinnati is a city of neighborhoods of which the joker who narrated this video is clueless - if it's not Hyde Park, Oakley (home of another ex-Cincinnati person) or Mason this guy doesn't care.
