I'm a youtube creator based in Cleveland. Been all around the world and moved back here. I love Cleveland. People are so nice.

[MichellesdesignsEtc]

Coming from a city with a population of 39, 000 in north east central hour away from Cleveland AND Columbus... Cleveland Is a big city to me😮

[ARIZJOE]

As a former Clevelander, this is a fair assessment. Many consider the Cleveland Orchestra to be the world's best. When they go to New York, they are lauded. Severance Hall is great. Blossom Music Center is great. Culture in general in Cleveland is great. It's a darn shame that they allowed the Salvador Dali Museum to move to Florida - it was unbelievably cool. However, if you are going to the Cleveland Clinic, you best make sure your insurance covers it. It's a great area, and I did not mind the snow, or rain. However, the constant gray skies close to the Lake are a real drag.

A friend who left Cleveland for Texas 42 years ago for work reasons, recently visited. His heartfelt comment was “it’s good to be home.”

[kevinstaggs]

You didn't even mention the "emerald necklace". Cleveland has one of if not the best metropark systems in the country. Before moving here 25 years ago I lived in several different major cities and none compare to the Cleveland Metroparks.

Enjoyed your video. I was born and raised in Cleveland and I miss some things like the food. I’m 80 so probably not going back but I’d also like to add people are friendlier there and lots going on especially during the summer. Nice that those older homes are still there. You should’ve also mentioned the mass transit. I worked in the downtown area in the 60s and would take the rapid each day. From East Cleveland to downtown 15 minutes. At that time not too many people drove there. Hope that’s the case now.

Not to mention. The Theater district. Play House Square.. So many beautiful theaters. Best outside of NYC.

I am born and raised Californian whose dad was from Cleveland. He moved to California because he didn't care for the harsh winters. However, we would visit often because his entire family still resides in greater Cleveland and I just loved it as a kid. Cedar Point, staying the summers with my cousins at Catawba island and swimming and boating on Lake Erie. A Christmas Story House. The four seasons are something I actually miss and the lower cost of living when compared to living in Southern California. Cleveland has definitely improved over the decades and we are seriously considering moving out of California because it is more affordable and a really nice place to live and raise a family.

The Cleveland Museum of Art is excellent! West Side Market and Galucci’s too…

[georgeanderson]

I like the cold and the snow, it keeps people from the outside from wanting to move here. For me as a Clevelander the weather is only bad from December to February maybe a little bit of March. I don't want Cleveland to turn into places like Atlanta, or Nashville, with bad traffic and high cost of living.

[mary]

I love it here. I moved from San Francisco. We live on Public Square downtown. So much to do. The museum is world class. We have so many great restaurants. Really sincere, friendly people!

[martinpavelka]

I'd agree with all of what you said. I was born and raise there, but moved away for school and career to NY state (and in NYC for several years). Likely retiring back to Cleveland--west sider here! The MetroParks are a jewel, and the proximity to the lake is also a big plus. One the past five years or so, I've been re-discovering my hometown and am always pleasantly surprised (I grew up there in the 60's and 70's---so a LOT has changed).

[natashabenjamin]

My mom applied for a job there in Cleveland, this a major help in the being informed. Hopefully this job pans out and we can get out of Arizona and the 110+ heat.

[gregoznowich]

I love this information. Thank you. It's honest and transparent. We've lived in Cleveland Heights for over 30 years and yes, it doesn't have the vibrancy of a large city, but boy, we have the arts, the food, and the sports - good or bad - just not 24/7. We are friendlier than most cities, just maybe a bit slower paced. But with virtual offices...once you're here, it will be difficult to leave. You will be in love before you know it.

[msangthrope]

And unlike NYC, which has their nice parks gated off, Cleveland has vast green spaces, accessible to anyone.

As far as healthcare and you are a veteran don’t forget the VA! As far as things to do don’t forget the very robust live theater 🎭 scene in Cleveland with Karamu, Ensemble, Doboma, Playhouse Square, Beck to name a few!

[andrewl]

I'm from San Diego, and this video makes me want to move to Cleveland.

[pizzachuck]

Learning about Cleveland . This helped. It's pulling me closer.

[SoarinOrl]

Including a beautiful shoreline and beaches going towards Erie
