Green, OH Area Guide

An up-and-coming suburban center just outside Akron

Suburban Lake Camping Breweries Affordable Family-Friendly

An Ohio city with a fitting name, Green is a pristine suburb that’s seen a lot of development in recent years. It’s part of Akron Metropolitan Statistical Area, but it stands alone as a fantastic place for families and recent college graduates to settle.

Green is classic suburbia. Contemporary and ranch-style homes sit back off the curb behind well-manicured lawns and mature trees. Massillon Rd. is the main artery for this Midwest community. You’ll find your typical chain restaurants and stores, but also a good number of local restaurants and cafes. On the west side of town is Nimisila Reservoir, a beautiful body of water complete with campgrounds and popular breweries on the shoreline. It’s an unexpected gem in this relatively humble suburb.

Green is just 20 minutes from Akron should you crave some nightlife or a few more amenities, and if you’re commuting to work, I-77 will have you there in no time.
