The people who live here are great and always have a smile and a kind word for everyone. I have been living in Reading for the past 6 years and I can say with very heartfelt sincerity that this is one of the best areas and Southern Ohio to call home. Our schools are filled with teachers and other staff members who truly care about our children; this is a great location for finding a good job and a nice place to live; the people who live here take pride in the way their community looks and in the peaceful life we enjoy here.

Reading is in a great location with such close proximity to Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky. There's a lot to do and see including Kings Island amusement park, the Cincinnati Zoo, Coney Island amusement park, the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center, Newport on the Levee, the Newport Aquarium, and numerous restaurants, and nightlife spots. I highly recommend life here in Reading. Read Less
