<p>I’ve found Cleveland a great place to live. When you’re in college (especially for those of us without cars), having a good and reliable public trasportation is key to being able to actually go out and enjoy the city (and get you to important places like Target and Wal-mart). I’ve found the public transportation to be very easy to use and worth the cost of the required pass. You can’t beat the convenience of taking the Rapid from right on campus to the airport for getting home for breaks!
We get free admission to most of the museums, discount tickets to music performances (Last year I saw 2 big name musicians at solo benefit concerts for a total of less than $50 - regular ticket prices would have been close to $125), discounts to local playhouses, among other things. For the intellectual student who isn’t into the typical college idea of fun, this is a great city to be in. From what I’ve heard, Cleveland is growing in ways to entertain the typical college student as well…The Flats seems to cater to the clubbing crowd quite well.
Another neat thing about Cleveland is that it is surrounded by a set of parks (the MetroParks). For someone like me who’s not from a city, the chance to get away into a non-populous area for a while and recharge is great.</p>
