You said that in Ohio gays are not welcome.

I would suggest that you do not move into Columbus
In the time since you have left Ohio, cities like Columbus have move forward.
Please stay in Florida.
Columbus urban neigborhoods are now gentrified by young couples, gays, straights, everyone of different walks of life and we live and coexist together.

Your thoughts are not of the Ohio that we are trying to form but of a hickland, a slice of West Virigina.

Columbus has changed much since you have been here, the urban city is seeing a large amount of growth and urban neighborhood are beautiful with amazing buildings, houses, and stores, and restaurants. Just a few decades ago these neighborhoods and districts were not gentrified, except German Village.

Your regressive trends are not what makes a city like Columbus the place it is today. The neighborhoods have become gentrified and the urban infill occuring is great. If you are person who is racist or have ignorant views towards others than yourself I would suggest that you are right and you do not look into living in Columbus.


Columbus has laws protecting employement rights for all gays, if your gay you cannot be fired becasue of it, it has been added to the civil rights code.

All major Ohio cities have followed suit as well.

Nobody cares. We get it, you love Columbus, but that is completely off subject.

These posts are a testament to how little the rest of Ohio knows about the land along the river. Like it or not (I don't), we're part of this state too, so don't knock us just because our ways are different. This is (there is no dispute) the most beautiful area of the state physically, and believe it or not, some people actually like to live down here. Oh and, just because you've visited it "once or twice", please don't consider yourself an expert on this hilly country... A country boy can survive.

South east Ohio is run by the good old buddy system. The city councils are either corrupt or just plain stupid. The small towns like Gallipolis, Pomeroy, Middleport and others are in a strangle hold of the wealthy who got their economic blessings from their grandparents not their own work and will not change anything as long as they stay on top. More millionaires reside in Gallia County then any other place in Ohio. When they are gone perhaps the next generation will be less greedy. The economic future is bleak. To Bad because its really a wonderful place to live and housing costs are the lowest to be found anywhere except the desert waste lands. The work at home folks should consider this location. The area is the most beautiful along the vast Ohio river especially in the summer.
