All that racial hostility? I haven't noticd that in Cincy at all. If anything I have seen more interracial marraiges/relationships here than anywhere I have been. Now downtown inner city might be slightly different, but most hostility there is more gang realted than race related. My biggest gripe is the highways around here are horrid only made worse by the lack of usefull secondary roads. I can either be stuck in bumper to bumper traffic or drive down a croweded 2 land road with stoplights every 1 mile, only to watch a green light fade away while I am stuck behing the metro in the right lane and the poor driver waiting to turn left right next to the metro in the left lane (yes this has heppend to me on more than one occassion). I can;t remeber the author but someone said once I want to be in Cincinnati when the end of the workd comes b/c it is always 10 years behind, I have to agree. THats my biggest complaint about living in Cincinnati.
