Cuyahoga Falls is a charming community that derives its name from the Cuyahoga River, which winds its way through the downtown area. Located adjacent to Akron and only a short drive from Cleveland, Cuyahoga Falls offers cultural, recreational, and residential diversity. Cuyahoga Falls has all the benefits of big city living while retaining its small town feeling of community. Cuyahoga Falls is a very family oriented city. Rent is reasonable and you can find reasonably priced "starter" homes to purchase. Living in "the Falls" puts you minutes from everything- Cleveland is 40 minutes; Canton is 30 minutes; Akron is 10 minutes. You are the center of Ohio's northeast area.
"The Falls" has 25 neighborhood parks, five cultural and sporting facilities, and a plethora of programs and activities. The parks and recreation department takes great pride in providing joy to the families of Cuyahoga Falls. Additionally, Cuyahoga Falls is the gateway to the Cuyahoga Valley National Park (Ohio's only Nation Park!) Many of the hike and bike trails are interconnected to the Summit Metro Park System, as well as the iconic 87-mile Towpath Trail annually, which runs through the heart of the Ohio & Erie Canalway.
