The Cavs and Indians aren\u2019t the only underdogs to claw their way up to the top. The city has had a long-term plan to make itself a hub for start-ups and tech firms. Earlier this year, Cleveland-based non-profit JumpStart offered $500,000 for women and minorities to move their businesses to Ohio<\/a>, which should attract start-ups toward the city in particular. Plus, events like Tech Week, which brings in tech innovators and entrepreneurs from all around the country, show that the city is serious about investing in technological innovation and luring talented young people to call it home.<\/p>\n

Its art & music scene will make sure you get cultured<\/h2>\n
