Saint:
I have an answer.
Cincinnati is a very conservative, republican, family oriented mid sized midwestern town. Overtly anti-gay and subtly anti non-white. Generally, its population is made up of white german 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th generation descendants who love everything Cincinnati and associated with Ronald Reagan and despise anything hollywood, Cleveland, Clinton, jewish and Jane Fonda. I guarantee you will see more "W 04" bumper stickers remaining on cars to this day than any other city per capita in America.
Scenically, quite pretty as its hilly and made up of quite a few neighborhoods. As with most other towns, there is an exodus from the city itself into the surrounding counties. The town is run, qutie discreetly I might add, by a guy named Carl Lindner. This old geezer owns American Financial, the Reds and is one of the top five contributors to policiticans. This guy is real real active in behind the scenes Christian right wing republican politics. Is good friends with Bush et al. Bush's top generals (or as I prefer to call them, henchmen) are from here and have had the big felon over there houses on many occasions.
Thats a $.10 tour. Oh yeah, by the way with UC and Xavier, we have some pretty good college basketball in the area, something I know you are not used too. I'm surprised you think I would not want you for a neighbor. My quiver of dental malpractice cases is sadly deplete and could use a good restocking. Welcome.
As far as 65 's suggestion of living in Kentucky, I would give that some serious reflection prior to committing to residing in the Commonwealth. If you plan on practicing in the state where you live, consider the market. Ohio residents have over 640,000,000 teeth. Last estimates from the commonwealth indicate total numbers approaching 4 figures. If you have a family to feed it might get a little rough. Although the commonwealth does lead the nation in sales of apple sauce and ice cream.
Simlarly, last year, I sucessfully disuaded a friend of mine who was considering opening a retail shoe repair store in Louisville. He has expressed his eternal gratitude. All in all, the Queen City looks like your cup of tea. You will find youself surrounded by many like non-thinking persons such as yourself.
I'll be bringing over a welcoming homebaked apple pie in our non diverse, white Christian neighborhood in my Chevorlet on the way to the soccer game down by the creek as soon as you let me know when and where you are going to move. Oh yeah, and don't sign for any certified mail.

PS. One othe thing, that old saying by Mark Twain is quite true. Twain said that he would want to be in Cincinnati if the world ended. Because it would happen there 5 years later. If your single, I would keep your right arm limber as the social life here for singles can be equated the number of times Dr. Freeze has voted for a democrat or the number of dates Penguinfan has had in the last 7 years.
