Stories From People Who Moved to The Land

Curry Cates, 26

Health Care

"I made the move to Cleveland from Alabama in June of 2021 for an opportunity at Cleveland Clinic. Until then, I had yet to live outside of my home state. Naturally, I was apprehensive about the move, but the Clinic has proven to be all I could ask for, challenging me daily, equipping me with great mentors and allowing me to work within a space that impacts the residents of Northeast Ohio. I did not expect to find a flourishing and culture-rich city here on the shore of Lake Erie. Cleveland truly has something for everyone, boasting a vast Metropark system, the largest theater district outside of New York and a bustling food scene. I look forward to my continued residence here in the great city of Cleveland and can’t wait to watch it grow and develop further."

Allison Newsome, 29

Law

"I moved to Cleveland for law school after only visiting for 24 hours but chose to stay after graduating because Cleveland was easily home. I love the delicious and diverse food options, the access to the beach at the lakefront amid a bustling city, the entertainment options (museums, theater productions, big concerts, professional sports), waterfalls and nature hikes, countless gardens and greenery, and a chance at home ownership early in life. Top of my list, though? The people. Moving to Cleveland from the South, I expected a big culture shock, but the community built here was swift and warm, despite the cold winters. Cleveland welcomed me in and won me over. I enjoy the pleasant surprise it is to my friends and family visiting for the first time, finally seeing what we locals see."

Frank Yang, 29

IT/Insurance

"I came to Cleveland for graduate studies at Case Western Reserve University in 2016 and have been living and working here since. I knew very little about the city until I was booking my flights to come for school. But over the last 6+ years I have fallen in love with the Metro Parks, Cleveland Museum of Art, and the Vegan Chocolate Ice Cream at Mitchell’s! The strong social/civic fabric I’ve seen in the community makes me believe the best is yet to come for the city and the region."

Jordan Wong

Artist

If you pass a particularly bold and exciting mural in Cleveland that looks like it jumped out of a video game, you’re likely looking at one of Jordan Wong’s recent masterpieces. A skilled artist and designer, Jordan was obsessed with anime, manga and video games growing up, still inspiring him to this day. Originally form Pittsburgh, Jordan credits his move to Cleveland for allowing him to grow and experiment creatively.

More Bang for Your Buck

With the 13th lowest cost of living in the country, you can live it up for less in The Land. A move to Ohio means dedicating more of your paycheck to building the life you’ve always dreamed of and doing the things that make you happy — what a concept, right?

In Cleveland, the economics of your future come into sharp focus. Go ahead and treat yourself to that avocado toast and morning latte, or get out and sample all the incredible culture, cuisine, entertainment and other world-class amenities we have on offer.

It’s certainly not going to stop you from saving for a home in a market where you’ll get more house for far less than cities like New York, Chicago or Los Angeles.
