Progressive areas in Cincinatti Metro? (hexbear.net)

Anyone familiar with the Cincinatti Metro area? I have an opportunity to potentially move there and would really appreciate any tips y'all might have.

Things I'm trying to keep in mind:

relatively close to some type of left organizing (<30 min drive). There might be a local DSA or PSL chapter, not sure how active though
diversity
dog friendly
walkable/bike able for errands / parks / poi
public transportation
safe to have gender bending presentation in the neighborhood

I've heard good things about:

Oakley
Covington
Bellevue
Hyde Park
Newport
Silverton
a few others whose names aren't coming to mind

The KY side seems more outwardly conservative (some pockets of pride flags tho) but is also significantly less expensive

Any areas that yall would recommend looking at?

i've also found that people in kentucky describe where they're from in terms of counties, instead of city or town names. tripped me out when i first encountered it.
