Since I've been thinking so much about whether to stay here in the Dayton area or to move back to my much loved city of Chattanooga - I did a little research about the statistics in both of the cities.
CENTERVILLE, OH -

92.33% White, 2.94% African American, 0.13% Native American, 3.17% Asian, 0.06% Pacific Islander, 0.26% from other races, and 1.10% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 1.18% of the population.
Median household income:
$54,892
Percentage of population below the poverty line:
4.1%
Percentage of female householder with no husband present:
7.9%
CHATTANOOGA, TN -
Racial makeup:
59.71% White, 36.06% Black, 2.11% of the population were Hispanic or Latino of any race, 0.29% American Indian, 1.54% Asian, 0.11% Pacific Islander, 1.01% from other races, and 1.30% from two or more races.
Median household income:
$32,006
Percentage of population below the poverty line:

Needless to say there are some pretty informative differences behind these numbers.
