[quote=Anonymous]We left Cincinnati in 2007.  I would not return but my circumstance is 100% different than the OP's.  I am in a minority group and in my hometown the level of segregation is such that its difficult to prove you are competent.  I also found I was living in a area with either have not's or basic middle class suburbianites with connections to certain neighborhoods and HIGH SCHOOLS!. Here the question "Where did you go to school?"---it is all about HS and class and upbringing.  It is hard for outsiders to fit in.

My husband is from St. Louis and never really fit in the Cincy clique.  We got tired of the low paying "Bank" jobs that came our way.  We were "odd", because we wanted more and finding a job there IS a real struggle.

OP, I suggest you go on City Data and look under forums for any area you find interest in.  The threads will quickly give you a feel of how the locals think and feel about their town.  I DO miss the lower cost of living but I do not miss the constant sports talk, and a lot of people there are not fond of "DC" for political reasons. [/quote]
