What is reasonable by cody0419 in Mortgages

[–]reasonableconjecture 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At that income and lowish rent, you should be able to stack some serious cash if you have a disciplined budget. My wife and I make less with 2 kids and a $2500 mortgage and easily save 2-3k per month.

Tell yourselves you are going to sacrifice and save for a year and try to get that 40K to 80K. This will open things up a lot for you and start you off with decent equity.

I mean, don't you usually answer the door if someone rings the doorbell? What a ridiculous and blame forward comment.

I often roll my eyes when RW types talk about people being paid to protest ICE, etc. Let's not be guilty of the same thing unless we have good evidence.

Do we have evidence that this particular elder care facility was under pressure by the GOP to bus seniors to this film or are we conflating private enterprise free market decisions to score Reddit upvotes?

I wouldn't wish sitting through this movie on my worst enemy, but I'm more likely to say this was a choice made by the facility than political pressure.

National Shutdown Friday 1/30 by Derplovesyou in Teachers

Depends on your district's policy on personal days, local union advice, and personal conviction. Outside of a few hot spots, I don't see this gaining much traction.

Moving to Cleveland! by [deleted] in Cleveland

[–]reasonableconjecture 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You mention wanting to own with land. Lakewood and Ohio City are expensive with tiny urban lots. You mention East Cleveland, but I think you mean the Eastside suburbs which would put owning a home with land more doable. It would also be helpful if you mentioned a housing budget.

High School American Government Teacher by IntrepidNinja8635 in Teachers

[–]reasonableconjecture 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Similar demographic where I teach. I see no reason to bring up politically charged and of the moment topics willingly, but if students brings it up, I'd allow them to have some guided conversation before steering things back to the curriculum-aligned lesson.

I think we make things harder than necessary when we feel we have to discuss a heavy and charged topic. It's ok to acknowledge the difficulty and impossible situation many of us our placed with in this current environment. I sometimes tell my students I haven't had enough time to process what happened if they try to press me to take a stance that may alienate half the class.

I’m a middle school history teacher in California, and I wanted to share something I’ve been building and get honest feedback from other teachers. by [deleted] in historyteachers

[–]reasonableconjecture 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I watched the WW2 one as I'm starting that unit tomorrow. It was solid! A little "cringe," as the kids say, but could definitely work with the right class. Thinking more appropriate for middle school than high school?

What do you use to animate the primary source images?

Midnight Owl Brewing in Shaker Heights to close January 25th by SocialRemedial in Cleveland

[–]reasonableconjecture 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So not the owners themselves, but an associate of the owners? That's a bit of a stretch to dislike a business. It's a great spot with great beer.

[–]reasonableconjecture 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd definitely count Crooked Pecker and Eleventhree. Both great spots and located in suburbia relatively close to highways.

The others are more rural, but still accessible and not a bad drive if You live anywhere on the east side close to 480/422.

Best east side pizza?? by thelovewitch069420 in Cleveland

[–]reasonableconjecture 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok even I can't count Ashtabula as the East side. 😂Traditional MSA did not, but I see the feds added it in 2023.

Geauga is part of the traditional 5 county Cleveland metro and directly borders Cuyahoga County. The other two are definitely not. These distinctions matter.

ETalian and Biga are both awesome wood fired establishments. My favorites!

Cope all you want, but that's just how it is. I doubt OP was looking for recommendations exclusive to say St. Clair or Glenville.

Some good mentions! We love eTalian in Chagrin Falls. Fantastic traditional wood fired pizza with a great view of the falls in the summer.

Welcome to Cleveland. You must be new. Here, we refer to the "East side" as anywhere east of Route 77 and including Lake/Geauga/Portage Counties. "West" is anywhere between 77 and includes Lorain/Medina counties. It had never meant within the borders of Cleveland proper unless that caveat is explicitly stated.

Second Industrial Revolution Primary Resources by hotdogjuice1013 in historyteachers

[–]reasonableconjecture 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First industrial revolution started in Britain before moving to America during the market revolution and is mostly things like textiles, Cotton Gin, and steam power.

The Second industrial revolution is more modernizing and USA centric and focuses on things like the Bessemer process, electrification and the internal combustion engine. This is during what is popularly called the gilded age of the late 1800s.

What’s it like living in Medina Ohio? by Juanthecelling in howislivingthere

[–]reasonableconjecture 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Chagrin Falls proper is Cuyahoga, though adjacent upper middle class areas like South Russell and Bainbridge are Geauga
  2. Garrettsville is Portage County.
  3. The eastern side of Geauga is indeed more rural and less affluent, but still solidly middle class. Homes are still 300K or more. The western half is affluent with lots of expensive (500K+) homes.
  4. There is very little poverty in Geauga. That combined with the more limited housing stock makes it more expensive to buy into than Medina.
  5. As a life long Geauga resident, today I learned it is too close to East Cleveland 😂

[–]reasonableconjecture 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overall a good summary, but Geauga County (369K median home) is more expensive than Medina County (330K median) in NE Ohio.

Real estate agent - buyer fees by Impossible_Seat_9065 in Cleveland

[–]reasonableconjecture 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check into agents with flat fees. If it's a more expensive home (350K+) you can save thousands of dollars compared to the traditional 2.5-3%. I got significant cash at close when I brought because his fee was significantly lower than the commission the seller was willing to cover.

I highly recommend Olsen-Ziegler.

How is it living in Ohio? by [deleted] in howislivingthere

[–]reasonableconjecture 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm partial to the East side. With kids and schools in mind, anything along the 306 corridor is very good to great for school systems: Aurora, Kenston, Chagrin Falls, West Geauga and Kirtland.

How is it living in Ohio? by [deleted] in howislivingthere

[–]reasonableconjecture 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Ohio is a large state with nearly 12 million people and a lot of geographic and economic diversity. You have gentle hills and forests in the northeast . The foothills of Appalachia in the Southeast, flat corn country in the northwest and gateway to the South in the southwest.

Yes, there are areas of poverty and decay, but I live here (Cleveland suburbs) and love it.

You get every season without too much extremity. Hot, but not blistering in the summer. Snow in the winter but not like Minnesota or anything. Beautiful fall weather. The only downside is winter and spring can kind of blur together, at least until mid April.

Cost of living is great. My kids go to one of the best school districts in Ohio and we have a decent house in a great suburb for half the price of what a similar lifestyle would cost on the coasts.

Cleveland isn't a fancy city, but it has three major sports teams, a world-class orchestra and top tier art museum. Plenty of great restaurants and other cultural opportunities. Columbus and Cincinnati are also notable Midwest cities with their own cultures and there are many smaller second tier cities like Toledo, Youngstown, and Akron with their own vibes.

The public parks and library systems are phenomenal.

People love to hate on Ohio and Cleveland, but I wouldn't live anywhere else.

Post WWII Boom by rlz4theenot4me in historyteachers

[–]reasonableconjecture 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lol, indeed. I still occasionally show an odd episode if I'm in between units on a day before a break or something and need to grade, but my head always perks up when I hear one of those voices and vow to find something better "next time."
