Which Cinti suburb should I choose?
We are relocating from an upscale newer community in Columbus, Ohio with a great school district. Schools are our biggest priority at this time. My research has led me to these Cinti areas: Mason,
Montgomery, Blue Ash (Sycamore School District). Indian Hill is too expensive for us. My husband will be working downtown. Is the commute from Mason really bad? Are there some other areas similar to these that I am missing? Thank you!

Campbell County schools are best in state - try Fort Thomas.

Yeah, but Ft. Thomas is 97.61% White & 0.73% African American. As a white male, I'd hate to send my kids to a school with these demographics.  |

Keep in mind these areas are far away from downtown, north of the city. Ft. Thomas is right there... just something to think about. Also, you can get a lot of house for your money there. |

We moved from Mason and we loved the area and still not to bad of a commute from There to downtown maybe 20-25 minutes depending on the time of morning. Great schools and lots of shopping.

Loveland, West Chester, and Fairfield would also fit the bill.
My favorite Cincy real-estate Websites are comey.com and sibcycline.com.

Yes, Ft. Thomas is 5 miles south of downtown Cincinnati in NKY. Very nice area, older homes generally, top notch schools. Great place to live all around. |
