I've lived here about 20 years. I'm in the Colerain area. This city has gone to hell (or is pretty much every city like this?)

Yeah, I think cities in general are more difficult to live in and stay sane. Traffic, higher concentration of the ignorant and fearful, dirtier, etc. But then you have the trade off of more and easier access to concerts and festivals and museums. I found it odd that I had to move from Cincinnati in order to realize just how conservative a city it is. I left there in 1982. Since then, much of what I read about it hasn't been very pleasant...Marge Schott's racism, the Cinti police dept's racism, fanatical censorship of art, Robert Mapplethorpe specifically, etc. I do miss Eden Park and the Riverfront, though.
