That’s only Cincinnati which is essentially Kentucky anyway.

iven a choice between living in Ohio or California, I would take Ohio any time.


My daughter moved away from California last year and her boyfriend is a good kid from Ohio. Although they live in Texas.

Hotel California is real for me. I can't leave at this point. I'm too fricking weird but somehow normal here.

I wasn't slighting Ohio with the who? Gif. More just meant I've never heard of this "internet trend"

Rural Ohio isn’t much different from any other rural area in the South. Urban Ohio isn’t much different than any other urban area in the South. Really the only thing that’s differ is their unfortunate, hard on the ears, yankee accents. Though, I must admit it’s not as bad as what you hear in places like Minnesota or Boston.

Ohio has the inflated ego of Texans and the typical rudeness of Northerners, but their trademark cuisine is chili on spaghetti.


You're confusing Ohio with the arrogance of east coast pricks like NY, NJ. I'm a transplant and I dislike east coasters, have some neighbors from Jersey but they aren't orange.

Skyline Chili, yeah that's an acquired taste. I like the coney dogs that's it.

They have a habit of moving from Ohio to the south and then proceed to bitch about southerners and the way they do things.

That's city people. If you're a country person and relocate to the south, you genuinely appreciate it.

Yeah, I know people from SE Ohio, not much different culturally than Southerners.

They travel a lot, its cheap to live there. They seem to have a good life with little economic stress.

Because Ohio is doing extremely well under Republican leadership. The state is about to boom with some huge companies that are moving to Ohio under Rep policies that are making Ohio an attractive place to do business. Ohio is becoming more and more deep Red and of course the media and liberals come out bashing Ohio. I live in Central Ohio and it’s never been better fin terms of planning for the future. There are some really good things happening in Ohio!!

People don’t get out anymore. I assume the vast amounts of people on TikTok that make these clips haven’t been to Ohio.

USA averages are roughly the similar.

13-12% black. they have fewer hispanics, but Cal, Texas and FL skew the numbers

No better place to go if you need to find a middling president and/or a general that will drag his nuts across the south.

I hear people from California and New York talking shite about states like Alabama or Ohio. Then you ask where they've been to in those states, and they'll tell you they've never been to them.

Went to Cincinnati for a week for work one time. Wasn’t bad, wasn’t great. Overall pretty non-memorable experience. Still don’t know wtf is up with that chili spaghetti combo they have.

Ohio kinfolk paint everyone from south of the Ohio River as Hillbillies, not realizing the number of country folk in Ohio who fit, heck, even redefine that tradition.

Example: postcards up there with four stereotype hillbillies lying across a road and it was labeled "Hillbilly Speed Bumps."
I asked the nice Yankees who were about to buy it, would it be bought if there were blacks lying across the road? They put all their Hillbilly postcards back on the kiosk.

eta. Google images for a huge collection of "Hillbilly Postcards" the link is too long to copy here
