After visiting the area in 1842, author Charles Dickens remarked that, "Cincinnati is a beautiful city; cheerful, thriving, and animated. I have not often seen a place that commends itself so favorably and pleasantly to a stranger at the first glance as this does."
Known as the Queen City, historic Cincinnati is the third largest city within Ohio and the county seat of Hamilton County. Positioned on the scenic Ohio River opposite Kentucky, the city boasts the largest Metropolitan Statistical Area population density statewide, with 2,214,954 residents at the 2010 census. The city is filled with culinary delights, artistic vision, stunning architecture, and eclectic culture. Sports fans find themselves cheering wildly for the city's two main sports teams: the Cincinnati Reds and the Cincinnati Bengals. Residents and out-of-town visitors alike compete each year in the Flying Pig Marathon, and Labor Day weekend comes alive with an annual fireworks display.
Cincinnati is home to several Fortune 500 companies, including Procter & Gamble, Macy’s, and Kroger - the largest employer in Cincinnati and the top Fortune 500 company in Ohio. Other major companies with headquarters in Cincinnati include Ashland (specialty chemicals), Omnicare (medical supplier), General Cable, and American Financial Group. Education is another driver of the local economy, with the University of Cincinnati employing some 15,862 people.
