Population of Cincinnati, Ohio: 331285

Cincinnati is a city in southwestern Ohio, United States that lies on the Ohio River and is the county seat of Hamilton County. The city's most common nicknames and abbreviations include "The Queen City," "Cincy," "The 'Nati", and "Cinti."

As of 2005, Cincinnati's population was 308,728, making it the third largest city in Ohio and the 55th largest in the United States. It has a much larger metropolitan area, commonly called "Greater Cincinnati", which covers parts of Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana.

It is considered to have been the first major American "boomtown", rapidly expanding in the heart of the country in the early nineteenth century to rival the coastal metropolises in size and wealth. However, by the end of the century, its growth unexpectedly stopped and it was surpassed in population by many other inland cities.

Cincinnati is also known for the architectural distinction of having the largest collection of nineteenth-century Italianate architecture in the country, primarily concentrated in the Over-the-Rhine neighborhood, just north of downtown.
