Resting on a hill overlooking the north side of Cincinnati, Clifton offers a wide range of experiences from a college atmosphere with the city's largest school, the
University of Cincinnati, to an international center for cutting-edge medicine featuring
University,
Children's and
Good Samaritan hospitals. Clifton's history has been preserved in historical buildings and homes — from modest to millionaire. Trendy shops and restaurants can be found on Ludlow Avenue in the Gaslight District, along with the
Esquire Theatre, yoga studios, Clifton Market and a newly renovated branch of the
Cincinnati Public Library. Even though Clifton is tightly compacted with large buildings and interesting architecture, green space does exist at
Burnet Woods.
