City - Cincinnati

Cincinnati sits on the northern bank of the Ohio River, where rolling hills meet a city that helped establish the Midwest long before other major metros existed. Settled in 1788, the Queen City sits west of the Appalachian Mountains and combines historic culture with urban living.

Today, neighborhoods like Over-the-Rhine, Hyde Park, and Mount Adams each bring a distinct character to city life. Over-the-Rhine is packed with restored 19th-century architecture, Findlay Market, and Music Hall. Mount Adams perches beside Eden Park with stunning river views, while Hyde Park Square draws locals and tourists alike with local cafes and walkable streets.

Renters will find a wide range of housing options across the city, from converted lofts and townhouses in Over-the-Rhine to sleek high-rise apartment communities along the riverfront at The Banks. Clifton and Oakley offer everything from charming older buildings to newer developments with modern amenities.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
