What’s your recommendation for a furnished studio or 1B1B near downtown, OTR, walnut hills, or mount auburn? (Around $1400) I’d appreciate any insights, there’s so many options 😭

I love my current neighborhood; it has a lot of arts and community activities and parks and is very walkable. We can walk to the elementary school, library, pool, Ameristop, laudry, daycare, sandwich shop, cafe, ice cream shop, etc etc. There are 3 libraries within a 2-3 mile radius. Side note: if you have a very young family I highly recommend Greenhills. It's very family friendly and pretty reasonably priced.

Only thing is the school district is not great, and my kid is getting to be middle school aged, so we're looking to move into a better school district. My siblings all went to Mason, but my mom said the property taxes there are insanely high, so wanted suggestions on good districts that maybe have lower taxes than Mason. Bonus points for being family friendly.

Recommendations for good neighborhoods, anyone?

Edited to add: I understand property taxes fun schools. I just want to find a balance between $20k/year on property taxes and like the $2k/year I pay now.

Stop turning left from the right lane!! 😡

(No idea what to flair this as, apologies) Hey y’all, Richmond VA resident with a weird question. Your city is a bit bigger than ours by my calculations, but y’all got three plaza art stores and we have one. Anyone know why that is? Thanks!

Searched Etsy but nothing really spoke to me. Any suggestions for local stores, either brick and mortar or online, that have cute ones?

I have an older cat that becomes possessed by Satan when he goes to the vet. Does anyone have any recommendations for vets that will make house calls for check-ups? My clinic didn’t know of any.

Thanks!

Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky hosts two adult roller derby teams, two junior roller derby teams, and two roller hockey teams that are in need of game venues.

The six teams are working together to find a venue that would allow for nearly full day rentals on weekends starting in January.

We are looking for spaces large enough to tape off a court that is slightly smaller than a standard skating rink, roughly 90'x120'. We need it to have no obstructions, like pillars, but may be able to work around flooring obstructions, like openings for volleyball nets, for example.

We must have bathrooms that are relatively close by and accessible on skates.

The floor can be sports floor, wood, polished concrete, etc. (We do not damage the floors.)

The ideal location would have an area we can set up chairs, even if we need to bring our own.

We would need an area where skaters can gear up, but it does not necessarily need to be a locker room or private, just enough room for gear for 40 skaters.

Does anyone have any leads on locations that might work in or around Cincinnati? Empty warehousing, barn, unused school gyms, churches...we are willing to consider nearly anything.

Hello,

I wanted to get some input regarding the area by Carplin Place and Reading Road. I am looking for housing close to UC and children’s hospital. Since I don’t know the area well, I was wondering how safe the area is and if I should avoid it.

Thanks in advance!

How is 75 south right now?

I recently moved to Columbus, and my best friend lives in Louisville. We're planning to meet up in Cincinnati to spend time together and would love to enjoy some Christmas-themed activities there. Are there any holiday markets or pop-up events happening? I came across the Miracle pop-up on Instagram at the Overlook, but most tickets are already sold out. We're both off from December 19th to January 2nd, so anything happening during that time would be perfect!

yoooo Cincinnati Redditors!

Do you love sauna-ing?

Do you love cold plunges?

If I started a sauna / cold plunge club in Cincinnati, would you be into it?

Let me know!

Hello all! I'm potentially moving to Cincinnati this summer and had a question about securing an apartment.

Previously, I have always lived with a s/o or friend who owned the property and never had an official lease, so this will be my first time renting an apartment. On Zillow, it appears most apartments require first month's rent and security deposit/fees.

From your experience, do most apartments also require paying last month's rent up front in addition to first month's rent and deposit, or is this rare?

Thanks!!

Good Day Cincinnatians! Is anybody a part of any volunteer groups that need people? Or monetary support? Or do you just wanna brag about what your org does? Please sound off here!

I know obviously the Ohio River is pretty polluted but I’ve heard Cincinnati has one of the best water treatments in the country.

Could you drink from the tap if you wanted without worry of harm?

I'm really wanting to be a part of an active group of writers and I am curious if anyone here is aware of something like this!

Does anyone know where this jacket is from? I think it would make a great gift! Any leads would be much appreciated, Thank you!

I've been searching for a long-term photography studio space for a while, but all the options I see are downtown, on the west side, or in northern Kentucky. Am I missing something? I'm just looking for something a little closer to home, but my options seem limited.

I saw an old reddit thread about creative spaces across town, but none of those were on the east side, so I'm also wondering if there's anything new that I have yet to stumble across. Thanks!

TLDR: Be on the watch out for scam calls. I consider myself a relatively savvy individual on this front, but I spent an hour on a call with someone claiming to be a part of the Hamilton Co Sheriff’s Office, saying I had 2 citations on my name. They didn’t ask for money directly and had all my information. Number was 513-914-0539

Long Version:

I got a call from a 513 number (I knew I shouldn't have answered, but I was expecting a call from a service I needed at my home), and when I answered there was a kind male voice asking if this was [My First Name] [My Middle Name]. "Yes" I answered, a bit skeeved out already that he didn't use my last name. He said he was calling from the Hamilton County Sheriff's office, asking if I was aware of 2 citations put on my name. When I said no, I had no knowledge of this. He explained that they were for "Failure to appear in attempt of court on (Nov 11)" and "Contempt of court." I asked what this was in regards to but he said because the case involved a minor the judge had records/details sealed. I again repeated that I had no knowledge of this, he gave me a date that they mailed the court summons. I said that I never received anything and didn't sign anything nor send it back. He then had me "state for the record using my full name, date and time" that I never did this. Because he hadn't given me my last name, I refused, but he did quote back my [Full name] & [address] to me.

He expressed that he could see no violations on my record, and could tell that as a law-abiding citizen I just needed to present myself at the courthouse for a "Signature Analysis Exam." He gave me the following numbers for the 2 citations: FTA-CV-1058, fine of $1750, & COC-CV-4610, fine of $1250, and told me that I needed to go get cash out, go to a bondsman, and go to the Hamilton Co Courthouse for this exam. He passed every 'test' I threw at him. He gave me his name and a badge number. He gave me the jusges' name and the Ham. Co Courthouse address. All of which I verified were legitimate while on the call. Eventually he said this needed to be completed by close of business today (which was in a few hours) and that I needed to remain on the line with them while I went about getting this cash. When I said this wasn't possible they didn't give me an option.

Eventually hung up on them (they called me back, twice), and called the number back, thinking I would get directed to somewhere random. Nope, he picked up: "Hamilton County Sheriff's Office." I hung up again and called the phone number for the actual HCSO and asked the non-emergency number about it. Apparently it’s a known issue and they are "looking into it." Still super bizarre to me bc they were asking me to take said cash to the Sheriff's office... what were they going to do with me there??

Hey yall I need some car shop recommendations, Im a new driver, first time buyer but looking to finance my credit score is 740 && also what are good car insurance companies? I’m 25

I moved to Cincinnati for school a year ago and my job transferred with me, but I got laid off this month. I'm a masters student so my hours are already limited. Adding to that my disability that keeps me from standing for more than 20 min at a time is making job hunting very frustrating. Every job that I could do physically on Indeed seems to require first shift. Any advice on job hunting would be appreciated.

Hello! I'm looking for recommendations for catering places around the Cincinnati area. I'm having a wedding for around 150 people and while I know the average per person is around $14 does anyone know anywhere cheaper ? Pretty open to anything.- We don't need drinks or alcohol just the food 😅

Hi ya’ll !

This is my first year living in Cincinnati! Does cincy get a lot of snow during the winter? How early does it start?

Also, when it does snow, are the roads cleared out well or not really? ( my job is 35 minutes away and I take the highway) (: sorry for all the questions just trying to learn what may come in the future!

Thank you!(:
