    What duck said. Nice museums, though the art scene seems a bit dry to me (then again, I grew up in Balto/DC so that's an unfair comparison).

    I work here: http://www.kuhlmannleavitt.com. I like it. Small shop, nice range of work and overall great clients. There are a few other good shops in town, such as Toky and 501 Creative. There are a whole lot of mediocre shops too. The design scene in general is conservative, but companies like ours have an eclectic client base from around the country. We're actually ideally situated between the two coasts. Budgets so far have probably not been hit as hard for local clients as they have on the coasts.

    Great indie music scene here.

    I live in South City, which is steadily being re-populated by young folk like myself. Small but neat yards and old brick houses with sycamore-lined streets. Surpisingly safe area for a city.

    There are a handful of world-class restaurants around here. Also, my all-time favorite pub, the Scottish Arms, is considered one of the great whisky bars in the world.

    Billions of churches, take your pick if you're a man of faith. Probably too many churches, to be honest. The general tone is conservative on politics, though it's fairly eclectic in the city.

    Don't move to the county if you can help it, unless you have kids and want some of the best public education in the country.

    email me if you want more info.

    • Haha, 'Cool Man, Leave It'

      Looks good! And The Scottish Arms? I'm there! Scots wahey!

    • Dude, DRY is an understatment, try non-existent. The only place the hosts good stuff is MadArt and it's not regular enough to sustain people who like to go to galleries all the timeNONEIS
