Cambridge, OH
Cambridge, Ohio is a great place to live. -
3/30/2013I just read a review from Noah in Senecaville saying that Cambridge is a bad place to live, but I've lived in Cambridge all of my life and wouldn't want to live anywhere else. Because of the slow economy, the crime rate has increased but most definitely isn't even close to being the highest in the state. As with any community in the nation, we have our problems, but we have so many more positives. Our schools were recently recognized as being among the top, academically, in the state. We have a church on pretty much every corner and thousands of wonderful Christains and many Christain outreaches. Our pay scale may not be the highest in the nation, but Jobs & Family Services makes sure that no one has to live in poverty. Our city government, police dept and fire dept are all top notch. There are lots of sports programs for our youth w/many caring adults who volunteer their time and talent to teach and coach them, and the local facilities are outstanding (including our schools, beautiful city park, football, soccer, softball and baseball fields, YMCA, Salt Fork State Park and more). If we look hard enough, we can see bad in pretty much everything, but it's so much more uplifting to look for and see the good, and you don't have to look very hard to see that Cambridge is a great place to live.
