I'd like to hear how people would RANK these cities in Ohio, from BEST (favorite).....to worst (least favorite).

When I say city, this also includes the immediate suburbs, of that city.

Please feel free to add another Ohio city, if I didn't include one below:


(in no particular order) 10 cities to rank

Dayton-Springfield
Canton
Toledo
Cleveland
Lima
Columbus
Youngstown
Akron
Marion
Cincinnati

Same list except Cleveland would be either be just above or tied with Cincinnati. Lima shouldnt even be a choice, i dont understand why anyone would want to live in tiny decayed farmtown surrounded by nothing but cornfields for 60 miles each way.

I lived in Akron for several years and we just loved it. The quality of life there is extremely high for many reasons.

Dayton, Lima and Marion I've never been to except for a drive through so I can't bring myself to rate them.

I'm only ranking the cities I have at least some familiarity with, and I'm splitting them into the big cities, and the others.

Cleveland
Cincinnati
Columbus (I don't care that it may be the only city in Ohio still growing, it just doesn't seem to have kept the same architectural heritage that the other big cities have.)

Akron
Youngstown
Canton (I grew up in Canton, and originally had Youngstown last. But Youngstown just has more community amenities than Canton. i.e. Canton may have the Palace, but Youngstown has Powers, and Stambaugh)
