Well, luckily you're already in Ohio, so you're used to some cold. I'm not sure how much of a difference there is. What helps in Winnipeg, and I've heard in Minneapolis is if you live downtown there are indoor walkways so you don't have to actually walk outside that much in the winter if you live and work in those areas. But there are of course benefits to not living in the core, and in the winter is it better to bus or drive? I hate transferring buses and also driving in the winter so I try to just live where it's one bus to most places.
Winter's also great for practicing your stoicism techniques, which you might enjoy.
