      We based ourselves in Cincinnati for the eclipse last year (or more accurately, Mason, literally viewing distance to Kings Island). I didn’t have a lot of expectations for it, but it was better than I expected. I’d go back, even if just to go to Kings Island when it’s actually open (which I’d thought was in Columbus because my knowledge of Ohio geography is not great).

        Kings Island is pretty fantastic, it’s been years but I always loved it.

        Cincinnati is great to visit, lots of great museums and sights, but it’s depressing as hell to live there imo. It’s in an industrialized valley so it’s very sooty and dirty, it’s not walkable, and there’s little social service wise so the poorest are fucking POOR there. Like, there is no scrap in empty lots because anything worth 5¢ has been sold.

        I’m sad it’s not better, I spent a decade there and grew up in the outskirts.
