I've never understood Cleveland's being on a list like this. The size of the city, its amenities (biggest theater district between NYC and Chicago, University Circle museums (hello, FREE CMA!), Severance Hall, etc), medical facilities, relative low-cost of living, transportation access, and much more make it a great place to live! I moved here eight years ago, and while it wouldn't be my top vacation spot, it IS a nice place to live.

Please, please do NOT make your children tiptoe on a regular basis. When my brother and I were kids, we lived upstairs from a family as noise sensitive as this one. My parents made my brother tiptoe because the neighbors said that he "walked hard." The result of this continual tiptoeing was shortening of the tendons in my brothers legs. That shortening led to his spending over a year in leg casts up to his knees in order to coax the tendons into their proper place and length, and that time in casts in turn made him have to repeat a grade. Constant tiptoeing has significant and sometimes severe consequences, especially to growing legs.
