Cincinnati, Ohio

Cincinnati is a river town. Sitting on and overlooking the banks of the Ohio River, much of its history and culture has revolved around water.  It is considered to have been one of the first true American boomtowns. While starting its life as a center for the pork industry, Cincinnati is now home to major corporate offices for companies like Proctor and Gamble, General Electric and Kroger amongst others.

Although considered a wholly American town, Cincinnati does have heavy Northern European roots - German, in particular. This is reflected in some of its early and notable architecture in the downtown areas. Paired with edgy contemporary architecture, the juxtapositions are interesting and vibrant.

Seeing Stars

Cincinnati is large enough that finding things to do is very easy. There are seven major sporting venues with the Bengals and the Red Socks at the forefront.  The Observatory is top notch and well worth visiting one night for seeing the stars. The Cincinnati Art Museum is highly ranked with a great art collection and there are ample concert and theatre venues.

The parks system is regarded nationwide as one of the best.  There are over 100 parks offering every kind of outdoor pursuit. Along with numerous annual festivals, you'll be venturing out of your new Cincinnati apartment in no time to find activities.

Diverse Views

When starting the search for that Cincinnati apartment, you'll want to keep in mind some of the more notable neighborhoods.  Hyde Park is a largely upscale neighborhood with great shops and restaurants while Avondale is the closest residential area to the city's center. 

Mt. Adams in the northern part of the city has amazing views and is much more trendy whereas Mt. Washington's areas are more up and coming and diverse. For true diversity, check out the Clifton area.  It's affordable and hopping with bars and shopping.

Greek Chili

Dining out in Cincinnati is a treat. You'll want to try two that are especially indicative to the city.  The first is chili.  Cincinnati has its own version which is based on a Greek recipe which should be checked out at either Skyline or Gold Star.  Also a city tradition is Graeter's ice cream which has several locations and is nationally famous for its desserts.  For high end nights out, try the newer Jean-Robert at Pigalls. He's a noted five start chef!

Jazz in Kentucky

Nightlife in the city is great.  Even Forbes magazine rated it number one for singles. The Main Street Entertainment District is the place to start with its numerous clubs and bars. Across the river in Newport or Covington, there are great little jazz bars, or go up to the City View Tavern at Mt. Adams for beers and fantastic views. All of these places will be close enough to your Cincinnati apartment to enjoy often.
