I think I need a caveat . Sure , there are touristy THINGS to do here , but there ' s not much to do in the city . You can go to Powells and spend money , and you can go stand in line at Voodoo and then spend money , but when I say that it ' s not a touristy town , I mean that the downtown is like any other downtown . Now , if you go to Washington park there ' s the zoo and the rosegarden and such . And if you go out on the hiking trails , there ' s that , but when I say it ' s not touristy , it ' s that we ' re not really a destination place for anything . The much much much bigger problem you ' re going to have are making your ends meet . You said Cincinatti , and if I estimate that between you and your husband you make . let ' s say . $ 65 , 000 a year in Cincinatti , you ' re going to need to make around $ 90 , 000 a year here to have a similar quality of life . At anything less than $ 100 k $ 110 k combined , you ' re not going to own a house here in the limits or in many of the relatively close suburbs , you ' re renting . We don ' t have enough apartments for the area , and we actually have an influx of property managers because he goals are so outrageously high that they often get fired . We moved here in February and are on our fourth property manager . I ' m not trying to dissuade you , I love this place . But understand that you are going to be living with roommates .
