Mt. Auburn Reviews

In my area of Mt. Auburn I am walking distance to both downtown and Clifton areas. I love that my neighborhood has neighbors who greet one another and genuinely look out for each other. I do wish, however, that there were more neighborhood shops, so that I didn't have to go to other neighborhoods to enjoy a cup of coffee or bite to eat.

Convenient and fun place to live. Close enough to u of cincy, otr and downtown to take advantage of all its stores and restaurants. But perched on top of the hill to stay away from the noise and get a view. Small knit community that is very safe.

Mt. Auburn is a great neighborhood with lots of things to do. People that live here are friendly and seem to care a lot about the city. The public schools are nice and there is a universities within walking distance. Mt. Auburn is just minutes from downtown and the University of Cincinnati. Great place to raise a family.
