There are lots of organizations dedicated to food deserts in rural areas. Rural Action is an example of one in Southeast Ohio that does this. I also worked with several in Pennsylvania over the years.

Selection and price are key though. The Northside UDF has milk, eggs, and a couple of other staples. But you pay like twice as much as you would at Kroger. In my parents rural hometown, the Wal-Mart the next town over ran all the grocery stores in the entire county out of business except a couple of Sav-A-Lots. There's a convenience store in town that carries meat and some produce but everything there is really expensive too.

Is it odd? Does anyone in Cincinnati hate UK? Tons of UK fans she alumni here. And they're not UC rivals.

This would be the biggest problem with it, I believe. In my mind, Avondale, Clifton, and Mt. Auburn are definitely part of Uptown. Also, the Cincy Regional Chamber uses the term "Uptown Central Core" to refer to a much larger collection of neighborhoods that also includes Camp Washington, Northside, Walnut Hills, East Walnut Hills, and Evanston. http://staging.thecincinnatiexperience.com/live-here/uptown-central-core

Sure sounds like it. But unfortunately, it's a real thing.

Anecdotally, I feel like people under 40 are better with the actual neighborhood names. In my opinion, it might have something to do with a renewed sense of neighborhood pride and ownership. When the city was depopulating, they didn't really care to learn the actual neighborhood names. Now that these neighborhoods are seeing renewed investment people take offense when they get lumped together. Obviously these narratives are driven by well-off white people. I'm sure the long time residents of some of these neighborhoods could tell you exactly where all the boundaries are.

Here is CUF: Light blue is CUF. Dark gray is overlap between CUF and The Heights.

Here is OTR, according to the Cincy Insights site:

If you go to the Cincy Insights page it has the city recognized boundaries. It includes the properties in question in OTR but doesn't go up the hill like what you've linked to here. First time I've seen that map. It says proposed, so I'm assuming it was never adopted. The second link you provided is the "statistical neighborhood approximations." The key word there is approximations. They are not meant to be official boundaries. Rather, they are close approximations based on Census Tract boundaries. The neighborhood boundaries don't line up perfectly with Census Tracts unfortunately.

This logic doesn't make sense. The new West End Stadium is right next to Music Hall but it's not in OTR. The Shell on Liberty is half a mile from Music Hall but it IS in OTR. That's how neighborhood boundaries work.

Who is everybody? Because the OTR Community Council disagrees with you.

Washington Park is already perfect IMO. What Fountain Square needs is more people living nearby so it stays activated 24/7. Right now it only gets used during big events and during lunch time.

The percentage DOES matter though. It's not one third, it's more like 20% at this point. And that is a huge difference. Plus, PG has the backing of labor and the business community. Cranley was the business candidate and had greater support among labor too. Yvette had a mountain to climb and almost knocked him off. It's apples and oranges. But one thing is for sure, Cincinnati is no longer a place where Republicans have to be pandered to in order to win. It's not 2004.

Where do you get this stuff? A third of the population are Republicans? In 2018, Dewine got 23% of the vote in the city. Renacci got 21%. Chabot got 17%. In 2016, Trump got 21%. Romney got 24% in 2012. McCain got 24% in 2008. Bush got 31% in 2004. The number of Republican voters in the city is less than one quarter and it has been shrinking for decades. I feel like you guys just make up numbers sometimes.

1. Cranley was running against Yvette. Mann is running again PG. PG is much more popular, well-funded, and supported by the business community. 2. The electorate continues to shift left in the city.

It seems like Mann has decided that he needs to take the anti-urbanist, anti-progressive lane in his Mayoral run. That's going to backfire on him big time.

Looks like they're all from one woman. A real Karen if I ever saw one.

Is there a link to all of the awards?

Yea, I won't comment anymore here on the content haha. But just wanted to add that I also grew up listening to it in my dad's truck and I grew up about 70 miles away. They know their audience isn't in Cincinnati, or even in Hamilton County for the most part.

I got in my car yesterday morning and it was still on 700 from the Reds game the day before. Woo boy. Some really insane stuff.

Not to diverge, but PG has expressed his support for these changes at a few public events I've attended. Derek Bauman, who is running for council next year, is also a huge advocate for this stuff.

It seems reasonable to assume. Yet, I'm not sure if it makes total sense. The urban neighborhoods in Cincy, Cbus, and CLE pretty much function as small towns within the city limit. It's not like Philly or NYC where the grid is continuous for miles and one neighborhood bleeds into the next. Every neighborhood is its own little pod. And congestion isn't really bad, there's lots of open space nearby, etc. So what does moving to Findlay bring you? You'd probably live in a similar house but just have less amenities. Just a thought.

We weren't over the big city life when we moved to Cincinnati and still aren't. We would prefer a bigger city honestly. But economic realities are what they are and we can afford a nice house in Cincinnati and we have grown to like it here. The demand to live in big cities is huge and it is good for Cincy, Cleveland, and Flavortown that there is more demand than NYC, Philly, DC, Boston, Chicago, etc. can absorb (and exclusionary zoning exacerbates that problem, to our benefit here). A lot of people are now ending up in Ohio as a second choice but like it a lot and become invested in the community. Our next door neighbors moved here from LA because they could more comfortably afford to raise their family. One of our good friends moved here from NYC because her apartment in Harlem was so expensive and she was tired of having roommates. Another grew up in Manhattan, but married an Ohioan and they moved to Cincinnati so they could be closer to his parents for childcare. All of us, deep in our hearts, would still prefer the places we came from, and maybe someday we'll go back. But we like it here too and we're all committed to making it a better place to live.

Or it's the most likely to see large scale redevelopment because the junk yards and horse stables aren't going to NIMBY new development to death.

I lived in a 450 square foot apartment as a single person for awhile. It wasn't too bad. There are two of us in our house, but we plan on having two kids down the road and do not want to move again. We did not want a house this big though. The problem is, so many of these old houses in Cincinnati neighborhoods are giant. We really wanted to be in our neighborhood and we got outbid on two smaller houses so we jumped on this one even though it was more house than we preferred. We do love it though.
