i’ve had a love/hate relationship with cinci. coming from the detroit area, it was a bit of an adjustment. but i will say that it is a family friendly place, has a diverse economy, low cost of living, and plenty of cultural and low-level outdoor activities at hand. many songbirds in that area, and a hilly terrain makes it easy sometimes to ignore the urban area aspect – which isn’t all that big compared to many cities anyway.

it is a small town, in many ways. and don’t expect to catch a hockey game in the sports bars. but if you need to chill out in an easy to live in climate, this could be your place.
