I don't know much about that area. But, based on the prices of the houses currently for sale in the neighborhod, it seems as though it's still pretty stable. |

Can you be a little more specific about "Boulevard Park"? |

It's one of the 2010 neighborhoods. http://www.youngstown2010.com/neighb...d%20aerial.jpg
It's defined by Rush and Euclid Blvds. between Midlothian Blvd. and Berkshire Ave. |

There is a thrift store in an old plaza at the corner of Meridian Rd. and Mahoning Avenue. They might have furniture.

Have you considered Mineral Ridge
Mineral Ridge is a great location to consider. It is right in the middle of Niles and Boardman, great to choose either Southern Park Mall or the Eastwood Mall which are both great. It is a small township where people mind there own business and never any crime worth mentioning. Mineral Ridge has great schools with an awesome staff. There is a home I know for sale, it is in the low 90's with a fenced yard for dogs and has three bedrooms. The home is on Depot Street, real quiet neighborhood and is across from the middle and high school. Home is definately worth checking out. Plus Mineral Ridge is very close to Route, 80, 11, 680.
Liberty has crime issues and the cops are shady.
Girard has high utilities... sister-in-law got hit with a $1,200 water bill after the town screwed up on her bill. The city makes the home owners read their own meters now... beware
Niles high crime and crappy schools
Boardman has high property taxes and are snobby and $$$$
Howland snobby and $$$$
Austintown, great but has higher taxes
Lordstown is a nice area, great schools and lots of land
Cortland is far from Youngstown! That would be a haul to drive but I know people that drive farther.

Actually, Cortland is only about 20 minutes north of Youngstown, I wouldn't say that's a haul.

That Eaton Group site is much better than Realtor.com. It is amazing what is available under $400K. I forwarded one to my wife that looked great!
