Which city in Ohio to start out?

I was looking into SFH or small Multifamily and have been looking into Philadelphia and it seems not so Landlord friendly per the (landlord tenant laws and asking around) Many areas are over priced (i.e. Center City) and other areas are war zones. There isn't much cash flow in Bucks County PA from what I see and some of the fringe areas have a flat population with little growth. NJ comes with its own issues. I have seen many mention OHIO specifically Columbus. Looks like at least 24 major corporate headquarters there and lots of different industries (universities, government, Hospitals etc) I want to do a deep dive into Columbus but want to see what you all think about other Cities in Ohio like Cincinnati. I understand that location is super nuanced, but before delving in on a micro scale I wanted to know what the big overall picture is in your Opinion! Thank you so much!

 I like Cleveland as well. Columbus, Ohio has seen a rapid growth in jobs and population. Cleveland is amazing for cash flow.
