The Norwood market specifically
Norwood, an independent city surrounded entirely by Cincinnati, offers older, denser housing stock and a genuinely central location -- useful for families whose visiting relative does not want a long suburban drive.
Norwood's central location means it competes on convenience rather than newness -- families weighing it usually already have a strong reason to stay close to the urban core.
