New Franklin most boring in Ohio?

The 10 most boring places in Ohio, according to the Movoto web site, are

   1. New Franklin
2. Green
3. Trotwood
4. Sharonville
5. Springdale
6. Macedonia
7. Centerville
8. Clayton
9. Blue Ash
10. Oregon

During my Dayton Daily News days I covered basketball games in Trotwood Madison High’s and Clayton’s crazy-crowd Randolph High gyms. I always considered Centerville fairly upscale, although not as upscale as Kettering or Hudson. More like Aurora.

Sharonville seems like a quiet community near Middletown and Hamilton, which are more hardscrabble. Springdale’s main claim is the regional offices of Kroger.

Blue Ash lost a battle with Cincinnati that cost Blue Ash its airport in 2012. 

Oregon’s No. 1 attraction is the Sundance Drive-In. Sounds more boring than New Franklin to me.
