This was the first U.S. city to have a professional baseball team, the Cincinnati Reds. Esquire magazine called it one of the "Cities that Rock," and Forbes magazine rates it among America's most wired cities. Call Cincinnati what you want: We call it home. And Xavier's campus is just north of downtown, making it convenient and easy to poke around all of the neighborhoods, night spots and more.
