The key differences between the two groups of cities that you mentioned are 1)  No need for a car2)  Numerous colleges and universities.3)  Historical significance4) Well educated population5)  Pro sports

Then again, according to the butterfly effect, had I invested those funds instead of buying a car, I could be writing this today wishing I had never invested into some bad stocks or something and instead just bought a sports car - who knows.Of course, that's what is interesting about the "woulda, coulda, shouldas" of life, sometimes they may not have been the grand successes they were had we taken different approaches - hindsight is always 20/20.  

My son has the genes but never had any interest in sports. 

I don't play golf....I don't go to sporting events very often....not part of a men's drinking/bar group.  

Add to that all the amusement parks, zoos, ocean, sports teams and venues, shopping, etc. and it's probably one of the top destinations for vacation getaways, as it's a very well rounded draw. 

He does the Akron & Cleveland areas:THE PINNACLE GROUP OF AKRON, INC

Pinnacle, KW, and Berkshire are big names in the area, and I've seen/heard multiple people recommend KW.

The idea is that once the kids are in the midst of after school activities, sports, etc, we'll be able to be there for all of it, and spend summers together as a family.
