No one knows a city as well as the people who live there, the ones who know where to find the best local shops with the coolest trinkets, hidden gem restaurants with must-try dishes or mesmerizing street art sprinkled along the landscape. America is full of communities who make their mark on their city, making them interesting places to call home and drawing in visitors from all over to see what sets it apart.
According to a list of "offbeat" American locales and "charming oddities" compiled by Reader's Digest, the quirkiest city in all of Ohio is Cincinnati. This spot was recognized for its unique pig sculptures and attractions decorating the city.
Here's what Reader's Digest had to say about this unique destination:
"Known for farming and its meat production industry, Cincinnati was once so overrun with pigs that it was lovingly nicknamed 'Porkopolis.' The theme of pigs — especially flying ones — has stuck. There are statues dedicated to flying pigs all over the city, as well as an annual Flying Pig Marathon. If pigs aren't your thing, the city is also home to the country's largest sign museum, a cool and quirky stop worth visiting."
