The city’s website touts Lakewood as “A Great Place to Live”. Those five words are as simple as they are true – this really is a wonderful place to call home. Just ten miles west of downtown Cleveland on the shores of Lake Erie, Lakewood offers a unique and attractive balance of suburban amenities, small-town feel and the convenience of the big city just minutes away for both businesses and families. We are thrilled that you have found our website and invite you to take a minute to read about all that Lakewood has to offer. While small – the city is about 5 and one half square miles – Lakewood features an impressive array of housing options for the prospective home owner. From modest apartments to single family homes, luxury “Gold Coast” condominiums to its historic district with its many classic residences, Lakewood is a community offering a wide range of housing and a quality of living that is difficult to beat throughout northeastern Ohio. Lakewood is widely known for its abundant green space, outstanding schools and peerless city services – yes, this truly is a great place to live!

Being so close to Cleveland, there are a bevy of employment opportunities within a short drive of Lakewood; however, Lakewood itself has in fact experienced significant economic development in the past few years, even while regional and national economies have struggled mightily to recover from recession; for example, the historic Bailey Building, Lakewood's second-largest office complex, was purchased in 2006 and over the next four years restored to its original historic grandeur. Today, it is home to hundreds of workers and dozens of businesses. Overall, Lakewood is home to over 1,000 businesses of all sizes, remarkable for city of just over 50,000.

Lakewood is well known for its efforts to preserve and promote its past. In fact, in 2009 The Ohio Historic Preservation Office honored the City of Lakewood Department of Planning & Development, as well as Lakewood Alive for their collective efforts to recognize, preserve, and promote Lakewood’s historic resources. In 2006, Scene Magazine, a Cleveland based cultural publication, rated Lakewood the best city to live in. In 2008, This Old House Magazine chose Lakewood as the best city in the Midwest in which to buy a house; Travel and Leisure Magazine has also named Lakewood to its Top 10 Suburbs in the USA; in 2010, Business Week proclaimed Lakewood as the Best Place to Raise Your Kids.

Education and children are perhaps Lakewood’s top priority, and it shows. In the past several years, the city has invested nearly $50 million into four of its elementary schools – (Emerson, Horace Mann, Hayes and Harrison); two more elementary schools are slated to be rebuilt or renovated in the next two years. Lakewood school system has been consistently rated “Excellent” by the Ohio Department of Education. Lakewood High School, one of the largest high schools in the state of Ohio, is a very diverse institution with over 2000 students, superior athletic facilities which are frequently selected to host regional competitions, and an accomplished music department. Lakewood Public Library, an award winning library with two branches, truly embodies communal excellence – it has been repeatedly ranked as one of the top 5 libraries in the USA by size, and in 2009 was awarded the "Best Place to Hang Out" by Scene Magazine.

Last but not least, Lakewood cherishes its outdoors and believes in recreational opportunities for the entire community. There are over 150 acres of communal green space citywide. Lakewood Park is one of the largest lakefront parks in the entire state, complete with a live concert stage, outdoor swimming pool, picnic pavilions, kids' playground, a baseball diamond, beach volleyball courts, even a skate park! And the park proudly opened its lakefront promenade opened in 2006, with a breathtaking view of Downtown Cleveland and several viewing telescopes to enhance the viewing experience. There is even an all-purpose trail circling the park that was built the same year.
