I grew up in Cincinnati, and this story seems strange to me, because getting around Cincinnati seems pretty easy, actually.
It isn't just my opinion - statistics generally say that commute times in Cincinnati are lower than average for the US. https://www.bizjournals.com/cincinnati/news/2017/10/23/see-how-cincinnati-commute-times-compare-to-other.html https://www.bizjournals.com/cincinnati/news/2017/10/23/see-h...
And they are way better than European cities like London for example - https://www.google.com/search?q=average+london+commute+times https://www.google.com/search?q=average+london+commute+times
Cities like San Francisco and Washington DC are worse for getting around, despite having better public transportation. It's faster to drive 20 miles in Cincinnati than to travel four miles from the Haight to SOMA in San Francisco. Sure, there is sometimes traffic in Cincinnati, but there just isn't as much as the more densely populated cities. I think so much of the population lives further out near I-275, it doesn't make as much sense to build public transportation there.
