It is so interesting to watch you experience Columbus at the same time I moved to San Juan to experience life here at 20 years living in Columbus. I still don't miss it. I wish people in SJU were a little more friendly though, but that is my only complaint.
It’s crazy right! As your spend more time you get friends and figure out how to break down the guard of stangers. People are friendly once someone knows you. It’s funny how it works. What area you living in?
I am cerca de la placita... it is mostly because people think I am a tourist and some of them are more than a little racist. Go into Goody Boy in the Short North and eat. Ask for Ashley.I know COlumbus inside and out. Stop recommending the douche bro hipster bars in the Short North. haha@@wantsoverneeds6578
@@wantsoverneeds6578 I am near La Placita, Santurce. If you go to Standard in the Short North, go one block north to Goody Boy and ask for Ashley to seat you. Standard bought it, fixed it up, but couldn't figure out how to run it. Tell her you want to hear about it being a wild place :)
Columbus is diverse, however that doesn't translate economically. When it comes to the economic market, the Caucasians still dominate the market. FBA (Black) people here mainly work in service style jobs. Unless they're educated and work in the Healthcare (i.e. MD, RN, LPN, Mental Health), Business (i.e. Accounting), or Government (i.e. Criminal Justice) industries. Columbus is still miles behind when it comes to diversity economically. But that's all by design. There are definitely a lot of Somalis here. And there's a lot of Germans here. I was disappointed that they never had a professional sports team, unlike Cleveland and Cincinnati. And yes, downtown Columbus doesn't have anything special about it. There's not a "special attraction" that makes it known for anything. There's just a bunch of restaurants, some local businesses, and city commerce. If you want to do anything in this city, you must have your own transportation! There are no major train stations. Which is another thing that was supposed to have been established 10 years ago! But again, its due to the politics of ones who control the economic market here. So, if you wanted to go do anything up here, then you do have to drive far, unfortunately. Chillicothe used to be the capital, which is closer to Cincinnati. And how Columbus was made the capital just never made sense to me. But it's part of that 'Rust Belt' of America. And the smaller/mid-sized cities (i.e. Mansfield, Dayton, Youngstown, Canton, Akron, Toledo, etc.) used to be booming back in the day, circa. 1930 - 1980. Those 50 years were marked by immense migration and a population boom by this place. After the 1980's that's when it really began being closed off from the rest of the world so to speak, when it comes to capital cities growing economically. So that's why it's considered a "cow town" and the cost of living isn't that bad (depending on where you live). In conclusion, I have been here since August 2013, and as of July 2024, I am ready to leave here. It's cool for visiting and doing some business, however I wouldn't recommend it for residing. Unless you're older retired, and ready for something slower.
