I like fishing and hunting and green trees. Lol thanks for all the insight guys

If I wanted Cleveland area I would be more prone to look on the East side. Shaker Hts, Cleveland Hts. in close ....somewhere along the Shaker Rapid line which is excellent for commuting. Further out is Beachwood, University Hts. Pepper Pike...and even out to the Chagrin Valley communities of Moreland Hills/Gates Mills....but that is big bucks territory.

Of course there is also Chagrin Falls, which is one of the nicest smaller communities in America....though close to a major city.

How is east Cleveland?

Been on Nuclear ships, and other then having webbed toes and 7 fingers, I'm fine.

I grew up in Perry, lived right on the cliffs of the lake.. My family was one of the last NOT bought out for the Nuclear plant.. Still have family and a ton of friends in the township. If I had children to raise again, I be happy to raise them there. Power plant or not..

My response I guess was from the heart.. One of my fondest memories in life was one cold snowy winter night in about 64 or 65 when I vacated my 2nd story bedroom with my German Shepherd and my bed blanket to camp out on a ground floor FLOOR register with constant heat to pitch a tent over it with my blanket over the floor register and my dog underneath the blanket while I watched it snow out the window until I was sure there would be no school the next day..

That was in the days of coal burning furnaces down in the basement. And someone,, had to go down there periodically 24 hrs a day and either pull coal for the furnace out of the coal bin off to the side of the furnace with a snow type shovel, or at least stoke the coals in the furnace.. Usually both.. As kids we did it in shifts....

That power plant is 33 miles east of Cleveland.. If it goes Fukashima,, or Chernobyl, all the way to Toledo and the encompassing radius is fucked including well into Canada.. Which probably includes probably about 85% of the forum membership..

There are currently 62 commercially operating nuclear power plants with 100 nuclear reactors in 31 states in the United States...

I'll take it over a coal furnace

I was going to post a quality of life index until I looked at it closely, and those of Cleveland area suburbs.... yikes!!!

I'm glad I live in the 34217

Perry is still a soft spot for me

I worked with a guy that lived in Perry. He had a nice house and some land. He had a ravine that went down to the lake. But the nuke plant was less then a mile from his house and you could see it from his back yard.

He once told me that living that close to the plant, he got free electricity. Not sure if that is true or not.

One I found was east of Painsville. Kind of out in the sticks.

Take a look at Perry. The high school is better than most colleges.

He also had a home in Bath

If LBC wanted to hunt near home, then neither Cuyahoga nor Summit County would suffice. Medina County is some areas would.

Wayne Co. would even be better. That is easily accessible from either Wadsworth or Norton.

Of course, for the fishing, the question is what kind of fishing LBC is interested in. Obviously if he wants to fish Lake Erie he could looke along the Lake communities east or west. If he wants pond or river fishing, I am not certain. He may be better off inland, in like Wayne or Portage Cos. Though is there good fishing along the Chagrin/Grand, Rocky Rivers?

The fishing rivers I have paid attention to lately are the likes of The Big Hole, Gallatin, Madison, Clark Fork.....but those are in Montana.

Tyson lived in Orwell OH, closer out toward Youngstown. I once went by where he lived.

You could live near Lebron. He lives in Bath. So did Mike Tyson.

200k could buy the ENTIRE city of East Cleveland

I said this earlier, but the eastside suburbs have HORRIBLE traffic. Unless you get out east of I 271. But that's big money out there.

If you like hunting and fishing though, Medina county would be good. Taxes are way lower there. And there is still plenty of land to be had. Lorain county used to be like that, but it is getting over-developed rather quickly.
