Anyone familiar with the Cincinatti Metro area? I have an opportunity to potentially move there and would really appreciate any tips y'all might have.
Things I'm trying to keep in mind:
- relatively close to some type of left organizing (<30 min drive). There might be a local DSA or PSL chapter, not sure how active though
- diversity
- dog friendly
- walkable/bike able for errands / parks / poi
- public transportation
- safe to have gender bending presentation in the neighborhood
I've heard good things about:
- Oakley
- Covington
- Bellevue
- Hyde Park
- Newport
- Silverton
- a few others whose names aren't coming to mind
The KY side seems more outwardly conservative (some pockets of pride flags tho) but is also significantly less expensive
Any areas that yall would recommend looking at?
Lol, we know some people from the east side of KY that referred to this area as "northern kentucky," didn't realize how ubiquitous that was.
Reminds me of Arkansas - folks around there refer to NW Arkansas to refer to the, presumably, more progressive/different part of the state.
i've also found that people in kentucky describe where they're from in terms of counties, instead of city or town names. tripped me out when i first encountered it.
