True. So if you can afford Cleveland, you should be able to afford the Bronx?
Yes, and factor into account that you don't need a car in the Bronx because its transit system is more effective than RTA. Compare Cleveland or Cincinnati rent+car to rent alone in Bronx/Yonkers or Newark to get the real cost.
No, they wouldn't be. They would probably live in some apartment for $1,000 a month, assuming that they have the usual expenses, and preferably no automobile although that is difficult to do in Ohio.
All of Ohio's larger cities have apartments for considerably less than that, including conveniently located ones.
I was talking about apartment + car in Ohio being = just apartment in NY
You don't need a car depending on where you live. You can live in or near a gentrifying neighborhood in Cincinatti for less than 800 and just walk to work or use public transit. Ubers as well.
Major cities in Ohio are about as expensive as the Bronx or Newark.
Only rent in those cities' nicest neighborhoods is comparable to the Bronx or Newark. Any working class/lower class neighborhood is going to have a huge drop in rent - like studios for $400/month.
For sales, $300k gets you a 3 BR single family house in a desirable middle class neighborhood in any one of Ohio's major cities. $300k can only get you a condo in the Bronx.

Exactly. Bottom end Bronx ranks compare to high end Ohio rents.

You can rent an apartment in a decent part of Cleveland for $600, and in a small Ohio town for $400.
