Architecturally, Cincinnati is far superior to Atlanta imo
Economy wise, they are both prosperous but Atlanta's growth has been quicker in recent years
Atlanta has far superior transit
Cincinnati has a far superior natural landscape
Boy. Talk about your subjective standards. When I lived in Ohio first thing came to my mind when I got to Georgia was how much more attractive the landscape was compared to Ohio. The only thing that appealed to me about Cincinnati was the River and the hills surrounding it were kind of nice.
Atlanta is in a lush forest with a big River, lots of hills, Mountains not far away. Maybe you have skyline confused with natural landscape. Or maybe you just love the Ohio River that much?

I think he was referring to Cincinnati specifically, not the rest of Ohio. Obviously, Atlanta would be more hilly than Toledo, but not so much Cincinnati.

I know. But I still don't get it. The view along the river can be really spectacular with the bridges and skyline and stadium but once you venture from the River the town's natural landscape is not that great looking in comparison to most of Atlanta. But of course that's just my opinion.

Depends where you are in Georgia and Ohio. Vast areas of Ohio are flat glacial till, and greater areas of Georgia are coastal plain. That is, both states have large areas that are board flat. Southern Ohio is very hilly, as is the Piedmont.
Cincinnati sits on a rise called the Cincinnati Arch, an ancient uplift which extended, by some accounts, to where Atlanta is now and made early life possible on the North American continent.
i was simply stating how, from a young age, were inadvertently (at least I hope it's not intentional) taught to look down on the south; and unfortunately its hard to shed this way of thinking, even once your old enough to know that they are nothing more than stereotypes.
A little known fact about Cincinnati is that it has a subway that was under construction when the Depression hit and was never completed. The tunnels, stations and platforms still exist under the downtown streets, however, but have been sealed off for years. Goggle CINCINNATI SUBWAY.
So...it's not true that the two cities have been headed in opposite directions in terms of population growth and development?
How many times do I have to say that I love Cincy, but it's just not a fair comparison with a city double it's size...some people just don't pay attention. I certainly wasn't disparaging your city - just stating the obvious. But keep arguing if you feel the need.
Yeah, that's very true. In my opinion, Houston and Charlotte seem the most promising in the south.
I can't imagine either of those cities being "more promising" on the subject of public transit than Atlanta. Just based on the size and scope of MARTA in Atlanta I would imagine it to be much more promising than the tiny systems in Charlotte and Houston.
