another Cinci/Columbus thread (Cincinnati, Mason: loft, transfer, neighborhoods)

[houseelf]

Hi,

Is there anyone who is familiar with both Cincinnati and Columbus do a neighborhood comparison for me?

What is the closest neighborhood Columbus equivalent of Mariemont or Wyoming? Is there such thing as an equivalent of Indian Hill? Excellent but small schools and neighborhood feel is my top criteria. I am trying to avoid a suburb that would be the equivalent of Mason or Westchester which are great schools and communities but also enormous.

Thanks in advance!

I think this list hits it right on the head. We live in Bexley and have good friends that lived in Wyoming and moved here because it was the city they found was most similar.

I love living in Wyoming. It is the first place that I have fell in love with in our last three corporate relocations. Ergo, I'm looking very closely at Bexley if our next transfer comes to be. This is what I was looking for. Thanks!

If you're still interested in the Cincy area, and want to check out suburbs, check out Blue Ash, I love it here. Also, I am looking to move into Cincinnati as well. So if there is something you like about a certain area, let me know. Me and the wife are looking at neighborhoods for a converted loft or new construction and Cincinnati has so much going on right now and so many great neighborhoods to look into.

Indian Hill may be in a league all its own. This epicenter of the uber-rich is actually one of Cincinnati's largest eastern suburbs: isolated, hilly, wooded, and beautiful. Wealth, education, power, prestige--it's all part of the landscape here. Don't even think about penetrating this enchanted kingdom without possession of all the proper credentials.
