Cincinnati

Cincinnati is located in southwestern Ohio near the Ohio River and is the county seat of Hamilton County. Cincinnati's population is near 350,000 making it the 3rd largest city in Ohio and the 56th largest in the country. It has a large metropolitan area, commonly called Greater Cincinnati, covering parts of Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana. The Cincinnati-Middletown-Wilmington combined has a population of over two million making it the 20th largest in the country. It is growing at a rate of about one percent annually.

Cincinnati is home to many professional sports including the Cincinnati Reds (our first professional baseball team) and the Cincinnati Bengals of the NFL. It is considered the first major American boomtown, rapidly expanding in the early 19th century to rival the coastal areas in size and wealth. As the first significant inland city in the country, it is often considered the first purely American city, since it lacks the European influence present on the east coast. By the end of the century, its growth unexpectedly stopped and it was surpassed in population by many other cities within the central US.

Cincinnati is known for having the largest collection of 19th-century Italianate architecture in America.
