Yeah I have been reading the other posts on a few places and that may be where I could be getting mixed information on certain areas. Right now I live downtown Milwaukee, Wi in the "wards" so i am use to loft style living. I have never been to cleveland, again some of my information might be scewed by reading posts of living north of coventry. My monthly budget is 1200 including utilities. Which i know I could then definately afford cleveland heights, I am just use to space. Right now I rent a 2000 sq ft loft, so I cant be choosy but you would love to stay with that. And the job would be down town. Im not looking for necessarily a bustling night life out my window, because right now Im use to traveling a bit to get to it even though the area is up and coming where i am now. I just like that friendly neighborhood feeling. I love that I can walk to my coffee shop in the morning and they know my name. :)
