Girard, OH Apartments for Rent
Girard, Ohio sits along the Mahoning River in Trumbull County, about three miles northwest of Youngstown in the heart of the Youngstown-Warren metropolitan area. The city takes its name from Stephen Girard, a French-American philanthropist and founder of Girard Bank and Girard College in Philadelphia, giving the city a bit of East Coast history in Northeast Ohio. Those looking at apartments for rent in Girard will find a smaller, close-knit community with easy access to the region's jobs, shopping, and recreation without the hustle of a larger city.
Renters in Girard will find a mix of garden-style apartment communities, townhomes, and single-family rental houses spread across a compact seven-square-mile area. The city has its own downtown shopping district, and the Eastwood Mall Complex is about four miles away for more retail and dining options. Two scenic lakes, Upper Girard Lake and Lower Girard Lake, were created in 1931 when Squaw Creek was dammed, and Upper Girard Lake is surrounded by Price Field, a large park well-suited for outdoor walks and wildlife viewing. Nearby, Mill Creek Park, Fellows Riverside Gardens, and the Wick Recreation Area offer additional green space for residents who enjoy the outdoors.

Youngstown State University is about 15 minutes by car, and Kent State University's Trumbull campus is approximately 20 minutes away, making Girard a practical base for students and university employees alike.
