One would hope with 5x fewer people!","comments":[{"id":43778716,"user":"fakeBeerDrinker","time":1745461344,"time_ago":"a year ago","type":"comment","content":"

I think it’s far fewer, probably under 5,000 if we are really talking about “bars” and not any ole liquor licensed establishment such as a restaurant…","comments":[{"id":43778881,"user":"jhalstead","time":1745463396,"time_ago":"a year ago","type":"comment","content":"

It seems like you're pretty close with that guess.

https://www.ibisworld.com/us/industry/ohio/bars-nightclubs/1... (2025) estimates there are about 3,000 "bars and nightclubs" in Ohio.

And https://vinepair.com/articles/map-states-with-most-bars/ (2022) estimates there are 1800 bars in Ohio, apparently placing it in the Top 10 of states with the most bars.","comments":[],"comments_count":0,"level":3,"url":"item?id=43778881"}],"comments_count":1,"level":2,"url":"item?id=43778716"}],"comments_count":2,"level":1,"url":"item?id=43778695"}],"comments_count":3,"level":0,"url":"item?id=43778678"}],"comments_count":4,"url":"item?id=43778636"}
