I usually fly into Cincinnati and the airport is located just across the river in Hebron. If your job is in Hebron you don't necessarily have to live there. There are lots of suburbs around Cincinnati that are really nice and the real estate is probably priced about the same as where you are now. It's hot as Hell and muggy in the summer and cold in the winter, but they usually don't get large amounts of snow like people up around the great lakes. Downtown Cincy is probably a lot safer than most parts of Detroit, but they do have crime like any other city. As far as schools are concerned, Ohio and Kentucky have some of the best public schools in the country. Had I not been in a family business in California for the last 30 years I would have stayed in Ohio and raised my kids there. I have many fond memories of my childhood and still have family there. Things haven't changed much since I've been gone and if I had a good job opportunity in that part of the country I'd take it. For what I pay to live on the south end of middle class in California, I could live like a king in Ohio. Dayton is about an hour north of Hebron and there are tons of burbs in between where there are great communities, schools and good old southern Ohio hospitality. Good luck! yea its not a bad area .......i say go for it.. NickTheGrip 1

They came through with the conditions I was looking for so I decided to re-accept. They are covering my COBRA payment up front and have promised the relocation funds up front also. They even sweetened the pot with an extra week's vacation I handed my 2 weeks notice in today. My boss was totally blindsided and not very happy. This was right after he set me up as the guy to close out two of our biggest problem jobs to those customers (Subaru and GM). Now he has to go back to them and say "change of plan - we don't have one yet" January 6 is my first day on the job in Kentucky. Now the fun part starts - trying to relo the family over the next 3 months or so. Woo, hoo.................................I think LOL Gatorgirl, LtLaszlo and Blackbart 3 Awards
