Another Cincinnati vs. Cleveland thread, huh? When will the big brother and little brother stop trying to one-up the other?

^ No, those are just revenue figures, not net worth.

I didn't forget Lubrizol. Cleveland doesn't have any Fortune Global 500 firms. Nationwide is the lowest ranked Ohio company on the list at 423. Nationwide has almost double the revenue of Eaton, 20+ million to 11 million for Eaton.

You mean BILLION, right???

Here's my take... CinCinnati is able to retain young people.... lots of young professionals... Cleveland hasn't been able to do that.

Cleveland is an older population that's NOW starting to get those high-tech jobs. Cleveland and the nati are the same city... it's just the nati has more of a night life for younger professionals.

To me that's the biggest difference. Until Cleveland can bring in a new, younger, crowd and can retain them Cleveland will always be a city that's looked down upon.

Most of the people that still live in Cleveland are the people that came here when the city was booming.

So, in your assessment, Bentonville, Arkansas is the place to be?

Yeah, I'm pretty certain that you haven't a clue about which you are discussing.

You're one of those internet tough guys that thinks their opinion is superior to everyone else's aren't you?

If you'd like to meet in person and discuss the issue i'd be more than happy. Guarentee you won't give the same smart A$$ remarks you normally give.
