A little peace and quiet goes a long way, especially in a city as big and vibrant as Cleveland. Just as important as relaxation, though, is peace of mind. These eight neighborhoods and suburbs around Cleveland offer the best of both worlds through their quiet, quaint atmospheres and safe, low-crime environments.
1. Detroit-Shoreway
This North Coast area has been frequently cited as one of the best and safest urban neighborhoods in America. You'd be hard-pressed to find a better part of Cleveland to settle down in.
2. Tremont
While Tremont is best known for its trendy nightlife, the combination of gorgeous modern housing and stately brickwork makes it a lovely place to call home.
3. Ohio City
Ohio City is one of the most historic neighborhoods in Cleveland, and remains a slice of safe, friendly atmosphere in the middle of the bustle of downtown Cleveland. From trendy cafes to modern townhouses, the neighborhood is basically perfect.
4. Broadview Heights
Broadview Heights is one of Greater Cleveland's prettiest areas, and that beauty isn't just skin deep. The neighborhood boasts a quaint suburban atmosphere, a stellar public school system, and enough space between you and your neighbor for plenty of activities.
5. Chagrin Falls
The village of Chagrin Falls is a beautiful little piece of the Cleveland area. The citylike atmosphere gives way to a small, friendly feeling that everyone in town knows and cares for everyone else.
6. Coventry
Coventry mixes the exciting downtown feel of Cleveland with a much more relaxed mood and an easygoing way of life. In modern, fast-paced Cleveland, there is a certain appeal in the simplicity.
7. Old Brooklyn
Old Brooklyn, unlike the sprawling New York City district it's named for, is a unique slice of suburbia in the heart of Cleveland. The openness of the neighborhood and the lush green of the trees and parks surrounding it make Old Brooklyn stand out.
8. Edgewater
Sometimes you just need to get away from it all, and no piece of Cleveland takes that idea of peace and quiet through isolation to quite the extreme that Edgewater does. The view of the Cleveland skyline from this quiet neighborhood is unforgettable, too.
