It is close by! Lol. Not many cities in this area of the state. The ones of any size are really bad examples of ohio. I guess when I think of Pike county I only think of the northern part. Portsmouth is another shithole that is close by. Stick to the small towns in the area.
Depending on when you do make the jump, we do a few functions in the southern Ohio region every year. Come on by and meet us in person!
