Cincy Business Magazine Rates the Burbs, A Blogger Doth Protest
A Covington curmudgeon takes a swipe at CincyBusiness magazine, who ran the millionth magazine article this year about why the Cincinnati suburbs are such a great place to live.
Actually, this was my first-ever letter to an editor. When I was at Miami, one of my favorite poli sci professors (also a department head) told me how he and several friends used to compete to see who could get the most letters to the editor published. One of the group was published in Time magazine and they all threw in the towel after that.
43 Things has some funny posts on how to get a letter to the editor published. I wrote mine as I always write when I disagree with something, impassioned, quickly, and wholly without reservation. If that helps.

I don't read the magazine, so I have a question. Why did they only include areas above a certain median home value? And what was that figure?
Oops...I guess that's two questions.
The magazine states that they tried to think in terms of how a relocation guide might look at the city. In other words, the guide is geared towards someone brought here by a business.
They used only communities who had a median sale price of 190K or more for a single-family residence in 2006. One criterion they used to determine desirability was sales activity in 2006; with the housing market slump that immediately cut out several neighborhoods.
