Abby [livejournal.com profile] refracting, you suck! Cleveland rocks!

1. Cleveland, OH

2. I think it's pretty average. Winters can be snowy, but the streets are usually plowed pretty quickly. Summers can get humid, but not as bad as some places. It's your general four seasons.

3. Winters can be pretty gray and sometimes pretty snowy, but the city is prepared for it. Summers can be humid, as I said before, but usually it's bearable (fine if you have air conditioning).

4. No hazardous weather.

5. There are several options for public transportation. I don't use it too often, so I can't attest to all of it, but mainly there's the RTA and buses. The RTA is this rapid transit system that is like a train of sorts? It can take you all over downtown Cleveland and to the surrounding neighborhoods. If you want to get further out, though, it's best to have a car. The public transportation is pretty cheap, and not too gross.

6. I like my neighborhood. I like that Cleveland has a lot of culture (one of the best orchestras in the world and some great theatres downtown), and that there are a ton of restaurants/fun places nearby. It's definitely not one of those one-movie-theatre kinds of cities.

7. I think it would be best to have a car if you were here. So that's kind of lame. Plus the housing might be expensive? I don't know; I live in a pretty nice house, but I'm not sure what the rates would be on apartments.

8. Sorry, I'll be in Minnesota. But I think they're working on a new apartment complex within walking distance of the newly renovated public library in my neighborhood. <3

Good luck with your search.
