Review of Indianapolis, Indiana


Someone help me out please!!!
Star Rating - 7/17/2007
Hello all,

I am thinking about leaving Cincinnati and moving to Indianapolis, but I am getting mixed reviews. I was reading Black Enterprise Magazine and it stated that this city is on the move and a great place to live. Some people at work are saying that it's a better place than here because Indy has a bigger job market and more things to do. My friend told me that it's just like Cincinnati with the crime, racism, and boredom but worse. I say if you move here just expect to work in law enforcement or healthcare because everything else is given to people getting off welfare, Hispanics, or the son of the man who knows the boss!

***Not being racists or trying to degrade the lower class or the suck ups!**

Everyone that I know that once lived in Cincinnati will never move back, but I need to know whether it's a place I really need to waste my time researching. If you had a choice would you choose Indy, Chicago, or San Diego? I need to be able to pay off the student loans and live comfortably as I do in Cincinnati! Please give me some honest feedback.

Thanks
