Norwood: It's affordable 1.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 10, 2018) Norwood is affordable. That's about the only good thing to say about the city.

As I said, housing is cheap and it's close to Cincinnati. The Cincinnati Zoo is just a few minutes away and there is a ton of stuff to do downtown like see a Reds game. There are some great restaurants close by like Bucca di Beppo and even more if you're willing to drive a few minutes. King's Island is only about a half hour away too.
I don't suggest moving here if you have kids. The schools aren't that bad really, plus UC is close. The crime rate is really bad though so I suggest moving further out of the city. Read Less
