I would say come home for a visit and see what you think. The only thing that has changed in NE Ohio is that there are more housing developments and less jobs. Although, if you are in healthcare or transportation you should be in good shape. I definitely would suggest you find a job first before moving back to the area. Although, if you don't mind a commute, i know a lot of people from the boardman/poland area work in pittsburgh and it's suburbs.
One good thing about living here is the low cost of living, good schools (for the most part) and lots of indoor and outdoor activities. I probably don't have to tell you about all the fairs and festivals we have here in the summer. Good luck on your decision!
