Hi everyone, I'm looking to move to the Cleveland area and was wondering if someone could let me know about a specific area. The home North of Lorain (just a few streets from there) and in between 159th and 147th. I think this area is Jefferson, but I could be wrong. Is this area safe?

Thanks everyone!!!

Yes. Very safe. I live not far from there and have some friends that live in that exact area.
One on W 148th, one on W 152nd and another on Edolyn Ave.
No worries there and welcome to the 'Hood. 8)

It may technically be "Jefferson" but we would consider it still Westpark.

Peregrine,

Thank you so much for the info!!! I'm in Youngstown and will be going to check it out the area tomorrow. But I wanted to get some other people's opinions because driving around could be deceiving. From all I could see, it does indeed look a nice area. I have a general knowledge of the the different parts of Cleveland but haven't been to the Westpark area. I just started working in Downtown and don't want to drive an hour and a half oneway every day. I was looking at the Detroit Shoreway area (I love Gordon Square area), but couldn't quite find what I was looking for around there (and it is hit or miss there). But this isn't that far from there. Thanks again!

Agree that Gordon Square is "hit or miss".
Westpark is maybe 15 minutes to downtown. It's awesome. And there are 10 different ways to get there.
I am very spoiled.

I would just bike, it's faster than the 22 bus (I bike that route everyday and beat it) and you get the exercise.

Yes, that area is considered probably one of the best in Cleveland in terms of safety.

It actually has more of the feel of an inner-ring suburb than does most of Cleveland proper. Whether that's a positive or not depends on one's tastes.
