I moved out from Cincinnati 5 years ago. It's 大农村. The good news is you can find some cheap GAP, BR, Old Navy clothes in a GAP outlet whic is close to the Air Port (I even get a 0.99 GAP Jean from there). I forgot the actually address. You can ask it in UC中国学生BBS.

Try the Chinese Church. I still remember Mary who can make translation at the same time. From the church, you can know a lot of people.
