I always hear about the KKK rallys so it makes me wonder if there is a problem down there or not. Okay thanks.

What are you watching that you are always hearing about KKK rally's in Cincy? There was one several years back, but thats all I am aware of. The whole racial thing inside of Cincinnati is very played up by people outside of Cincinnati, for some reason. All of that really faded a number of years back. There are plenty of interracial couple in Cincy, and you will be fine in any decent part of town, at least no worse than any other city in the country, and better than many, quite honestly.

Cincinnati is a good place for interracial couples. You will not have any problems. I live near to downtown, and I can think of several interracial couples.
On the other side of the coin, Cincinnati's media is one of the worst in the nation. They don't report on news, they report sensationalism. Every few years, the KKK will hold a rally or put up a cross on Fountain Square. Their rallies draw about 10 people. The cross they put up (which is 6 feet tall and made out of cheap wood) does not even suggest that it was from the KKK.
The KKK is in fact very weak here, but when they do something small, the news stations and the newspaper will be all over it. They will interview anybody who yells and plaster it on the front page. The media makes it seem like it is a lot bigger than it really is. BTW, It has been a few years since they last had a rally or put up a cross.

I am white & my husband is black. We go everywhere together & have never had any problems. We go places from downtown (Over-The-Rhine) to get his haircut to Tri-County & everywhere in between. Most everybody is very nice. Of course you have some "haters", but that is everywhere.
But, as for the KKK rallys in Cincinnati....there haven't been any here in years!
