The best
place to live in Cleveland is in the Heights area on the
east
side (this, spoken like a true east sider). Shaker Heights,
Cleveland Heights, and University Heights offer beautiful,
quality,
old homes at unbelievably low prices.
Newer homes in the more
distant surburbs like
Solon, Twinsburg, and Mentor are generally
more expensive, but
they have many of the conveniences we look
for nowadays.
My husband and I live on a beautiful street in
University Heights (within walking distance of John Carroll
University) in a 1930's brick and stone home with an attached
garage and central air conditioning. The houses are
close
together, separated by little more than a driveway.
We love it
because we have gotten to know our
neighbors. We have street
parties a couple of times a
year, we watch out for each other's
children, and we all enjoy
keeping these old homes nice. Some of
the more
prestigious homes are in nearby Gates Mills and Pepper
Pike.
