Mason
Mason is what Cincinnati looks like when a school district becomes a religion. The Lakota and Mason City Schools rankings prop up home values, the home values prop up the property taxes, and the property taxes prop up the schools, in a closed loop that produces remarkably few first dates and a great many committee meetings. Kings Island is the alibi the city offers strangers; the real Mason is corporate campuses off Western Row, the Beach Waterpark afterlife, and parents who met in Ohio State stadium seating in 2003. Dating here means dating someone's neighbor, or commuting to Over-the-Rhine and lying about where you parked.
