I live in Clintonville and used to work off Taylor Station over that way. Really not a bad commute being opposite of most traffic.
You can get a garage here pretty easily, or at least one that you can add an opener and spruce up enough to use.
Your main problem is its a sellers market right now. Hardcore. Things here are going in less than a week sometimes and for 10-20K over asking. Granted most of these bigger money ones are up more north towards Henderson..
I am by Weber and its a great little spot. Pretty much in the armpit of Weber and High is a cool spot. Walk to food, Giant Eagle, tons of bars, breweries!. I dont see any college kids really like I thought I would around here which is nice.
