Southwest Ohio city — birthplace of the Wright Brothers (the Wright Cycle Company shop is preserved) and home to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base (one of the largest US Air Force facilities). The Oregon District (the converted-warehouse entertainment strip) and downtown are the walkable cores. US has no DNV; ESTA 90 days. The structural draws are genuinely-cheap rents (among the lowest in any US metro of comparable size), aviation-research density (the US Air Force Museum is a major draw), and Ohio's flat cycling-friendly geography. Demographic and economic decline since the 1980s deindustrialization is real.
