[QUOTE="skeeter, post: 25535, member: 439"] schools in Ohio can be great, or they can be horrible - and that goes for education as well as special services. Theres a state site - go a google on Ohio school report card and will probably find it. I'd then dig deeper with the individual school districts. Keep in mind our "funding" has been shown to be unconstitutional, but nothing has been done to change that - for at least 15 years! Many of the large city school districts are on academic emergency (although the state does offer vouchers for those in those areas). For medical care, you "may" get better care at the larger cities, especially if there's a teaching university there (Cincinnati, Columbus and Cleveland). For "most" areas - the inner city is poorer housing, older, or going through transition. There's then outer, older suburbs, and surrounding newer suburbs with higher priced housing (and usually the better schools). Then you move into rural areas. If you find an area, let me know and I'll see if I can find you more specific statistics. [/QUOTE]
