Weird, that's not what this says: http://www.bizjournals.com/cincinnat...places-to.html

I won't argue about Ohio but Knoxville? College town, great downtown, very reasonable housing and other living costs, zero state income tax, and phenomenal outdoor activities close at hand.

Dayton was one of the worst along with Canton, Akron, Cleveland, Toledo, and one or two other Ohio cities. I can't believe Ohio had the most cities listed of any state.

What is your source? Not being argumentative, you just never provided the link.

Don't bother asking for a link... because quite frankly, happiness is subjective, and always changing.

Every city or town anywhere, has its pro's and con's. It only matters what you want.

Well, I already asked so too late for that. And honestly, I don't think many of those factors affect the majority of us on a daily basis anyway. A person with a stable income, decent education, and social network can make any city a great home.

A person without all those attributes you mention above, can also make any city/town/county... a great home.

I have learned through the years, there is no such thing as a "stable income", nor a "decent education". However, I have learned a "social network" can propel or haunt you.

With that said...

As the old saying goes, play the cards your dealt. When given lemons, make lemonade.

Look guy, I don't know if you're extremely bored or just like to debate but I'm not really interested in a back and forth.

I asked for a link because I am curious to see the article. Simple as that. Curiosity. Then you tell me "not to bother" and then proceed to educate me on the existence, or lack there of, of real education and income. Thanks for the wisdom. How about you don't bother telling me what to ask for and what not to ask for, and I won't tell you to get over yourself.

Also, if your social network "haunts you" then it sounds like you made some poor choices with your selection of friends and acquaintances. Now carry on trolling and let me ask for whatever link I want without having to debate you about city standards of living. Thanks

Fair enough, and I apologize if I made you upset.

But you don't actually need to wait for a link to the information you seek. All you need is google.com.

Best of luck to you.... wherever you end up.
