Is the trap that Ohio sucks to live in or anything more specific?
Housing might be cheap but…
- Car centric design (sprawl)
- Shitty weather year round (hot and muggy or just snowy)
- Pollution
- Terrible local cops
- Low worker pay
- Gerrymandering
- Nothing to do
- C o r n
I love the dichotomy of different kinds of states that tell technical truths about moving there. Ohio: I'll tell you the truth because you actually don't want to move here, trust me. An unnamed western state: weather or animals will killl you. Twice (please don't move here, because it's awesome without you here).
Sadly accurate.
State politicians are getting worse and worse
This is all right and its sad and my bike is sad
Only thing I care is, gigabit internet
Sounds a lot like phoenix, except for the corn and snow... And it's not usually muggy here, just that oven blast as you step out of your air conditioned space...
It's worth actually doing the comparisons to see whether car-centric living is a net positive or negative in practice in particular situations. Urban density should be a pure benefit, with economies of scale making everything cheaper. Unfortunately, cities in practice have some downsides that reduce that benefit. One major one is that centralizing services means that it's more useful to try to get a cut of the cash flowing through the institution, and so some of the gains get siphoned off. As a trivial example, exactly zero percent of car commute expenses go to a bus driver's union.
The cost of living in Ohio is very good. The housing market is a bit of a mess in general but definitely in Ohio. It's a seller's market that still hasn't recovered from the pandemic.
Unless they're talking about Children of the Corn (which is a short story, not a book) I don't know what King book they're referencing. And as a Grade A certified pedantic asshole SHORT STORIES DON'T COUNT.
I'm not a big fan of Stephen King but I love ass books. So conflicted.
The thiccer the better
Oh yeah, I love them thick and spread them... pages.
I'm confused, do you automatically get to be in posession of books that have ass pics in them once you live in Ohio? I'm moving there if that's the case lmao
I love how Ohio has become the go to meme state
Meh, Ohio is for emo kids.
No, Ohio is for lovers. 🖤
I hear Cleveland is nice
