Housing in Mount Vernon compared to Cincinnati
My family moved here when I was a kid. Crime rate is something to consider -Mount Vernon sits at 1,445.8 per 100K. You can expect to pay around $893 for rent here. Homes are going for about $89,700 on average. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse.
Pros:
- Affordable cost of living
- Good job market
- Strong sense of community
- Walkable downtown
- Active local events
Cons:
- Sprawl everywhere
- Not very walkable
- Poor road conditions
- Homelessness issues downtown
Does this match your experience? Cheers. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. The weather takes some getting used to. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The suburbs are where most families end up. The weather takes some getting used to. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse.
