CINCINNATI -- Consider yourself lucky. At least, that's what Forbes is telling all Cincinnatians.

Forbes just tapped Cincinnati as one of its Most Affordable Cities in 2015 . Of the 20 cities listed as the nation's "most affordable," Cincinnati didn't just make the cut. It made the top five.

Using housing affordability data from the Housing Opportunity Index, combined with cost of living figures and the Consumer Price Index, Cincinnati ranked highest of all nine Midwest cities included in the list, finishing at No. 5.
