Bitter.. btw most of my coworkers are from OH because we are based there. They dont seem to enjoy OH and glad they moved to Colorado

.
Where are they all from? What were their issues? I've lived elsewhere, and have travelled a lot. Ohio, and Cleveland, is a great place to live. *shrugs*
"Great place to live", eh...is that why some 517,993 Cleveland residents have LEFT the city since 1950? Is that why Cleveland was the 7th-largest city in the USA in 1950, but is now the 43rd largest city???
As of the
2000 Census, the city proper had a total population of 478,403, and was the 33rd
largest city in the United States, (now estimated as the 43rd largest due to declines in population)[SUP]

city in Ohio. The city's population has been shrinking since it peaked at 914,808 in 1950 (which, at the time, was the nation's seventh largest).[SUP]

[9][/SUP] It is the center of
Greater Cleveland, the largest
metropolitan area in Ohio. The Cleveland-
Elyria-
Mentor Metropolitan Statistical Area which in 2000 ranked as the 23rd largest in the United States with 2,250,871 people. Cleveland is also part of the larger Cleveland-
Akron-Elyria
Combined Statistical Area, which in 2000 had a population of 2,945,831, and ranked as the country's 14th largest.[SUP]

According to the 2010 Census, which was released on March 9, 2011, Cleveland's population declined 17%, down to 396,815 residents. This places Cleveland among the fastest-declining cities in the United States over the past decade. The state of Ohio is expected to lose two Congressional seats as a result of the 2010 Census and based upon the steep decline in Cleveland's population political observers believe both of those districts will be eliminated in northeast Ohio.
If it's such a "great place to live", it seems odd that it is among one of the "fastest-declining cities in the United States over the past decade." Apparently, the massive outflow of an eighth of a million residents in ten years indicates some kind of 'issues'...
