I’m going to call BS on an apples to oranges comparison if those are based on city boundaries and not MSAs or some such.
Cincy only includes the central city, as the suburbs are other municipalities. LA is a large city that includes many of its own “suburbs” within the city limits.
Not that I think Cincy is all that great, mind you. If not for the events of 9/11, the Cincy black riots of April 2001 should have sparked a big backlash against the race hustlers.
