A collection of well-maintained homes perched on tidy lawns, Canfield provides the ultimate suburban community -- so much, in fact, that it was once named one of the nation's "best places to live" by Money Magazine. Dating back to 1798, Canfield is filled with historic architecture and mature trees. Canfield is considered a suburb of Youngstown, located just 10 miles away. The city hosts a variety of community events, from the Fall Market on the Green to summer concerts to the Canfield Fair.
The Canfield Fair began in 1846 and has grown steadily into a favorite regional event. Held in September, the fair includes a haunted house, a hayride, a tractor pull, carnival rides, games, livestock shows, live entertainment, food, and more. Several parks and golf courses surround Canfield, including the Kennsington Golf Club, the Mill Creek Golf Course, the Mill Creek Preserve, the Vickers Nature Preserve, and the Sawmill Creek Preserve.
Ideally located, Canfield offers easy access to Pittsburgh, about an hour southeast, via I-76. Other cities within driving distance include Cleveland, just over an hour northwest, and Akron, about 45 miles west. Lake Erie and its beaches are only about an hour north.
