Living in Cleveland

Live More for Less in Cleveland

The Land for Life

Cleveland is The Land that’s down for living it up. This is The Land of blazing trails through 50,000+ acres of parks. The Land of legends at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, Playhouse Square and Severance Music Center. The Land of unmatched views along Lake Erie and inside the Cleveland Museum of Art. The Land where the local brews flow just as easily at chef-owned eateries as they do at the pre-game tailgate. 

In Cleveland, you’ll live more for less, enjoying world-class experiences without the world-class ego all while keeping your dreams easily within reach: 

  • Cost of living 6% lower than the national average.

  • Housing costs 20% lower than the national average.

  • Transportation costs 16% less than the national average.

It's time to start living your best life in The Land.

Plan a Visit. See for Yourself.

Education

When it comes to education, families in The Land have some great options. For the 2023 school year, there are 347 schools serving 159,143 students in Cuyahoga County. The top three school districts in Ohio (Solon, Rocky River and Chagrin Falls) are all located within the Greater Cleveland region. Meanwhile, learning comes alive at institutions like the Cleveland Museum of Natural History and Great Lakes Science Center.  

In Cleveland alone, graduation rates rose 29 percentage points to 80.9% between 2012–2020. The "Say Yes Cleveland" program has seen 49% of students enrolled in college within a year of graduation, adding to the rolls of the 25+ higher education institutions in the region that turn out 40,000 graduates annually.

Sustainability

Cleveland takes sustainability seriously. In fact, the first "Cleveland Climate Action Plan" (launched in 2013) resulted in reduced carbon pollution, improved water and air quality and over 70 miles of bike infrastructure installed, with special recognitions for the city’s efforts supporting solar and wind energy.
 
In 2017, after the U.S. pulled out of the "Paris Climate Agreement," Cleveland joined 400 other cities in a coalition to foster climate leadership through meaningful action in their cities. Through climate action, Cleveland is working to become a world leader on climate change and help preserve a healthy planet for generations to come.

Health & Safety 

The Land has everything you need to make health and self-care a priority.

Kayak on the Cuyahoga River or Lake Erie. Hike and bike along paths that wind throughout our city and beyond. Spread out a blanket and relax with a picnic in the park or grab some sun on the beach. It shouldn’t surprise anyone that Cleveland ranks #33 among U.S. cities with the most green spaces. There’s a reason they call us the Forest City.

If that's not enough, you'll also be entering a world-class health care ecosystem anchored by Cleveland Clinic, University Hospitals and MetroHealth that serves the community today while innovating advances in treatment for tomorrow.
