Moving from florida to ohio. Need information please help (Cleveland: fit in, high crime)

[Mona34]

Hello All, I currently live in Florida. Have been for over 15 years. I do love it. However my husbands job offered him a great carrer opportunity which is great. However I will get a downgrade on my job and get lower pay. Can someone please tell me a little about Barea OHIO or the surrounding areas? High crime. What are the neighborhoods like? Weather? Anything you possibly can to help us try to make the right decision. Thanks a bunch all

You would be better off asking about Berea in the Cleveland forum. It is a South Western suburb, fairly close to Lake Erie.

It could help to go to the Cleveland sub-forum, but just for you, here is the Berea city website...

Hey, don't mean to get off subject, but I went to the Columbiana Clippers Game vs South Range...

LOL big city person like me in South Range territory.

What a great game!

Your band did a great job, and I really liked the halftime show with the Batman and Robin parachuters. Really was nice.

I also heard South Range is building new schools... true?

Yes, it is true. Construction is underway on Route 46 where the old Green-Beaver ball fields were. It looks like most of the excavating is done, and most of the geothermal wells are drilled. It is going to be a one school campus for K-12. I wish they would have done it a few years ago. I live in the far corner of the district, and always had to drive to school events.

Our band director is top notch. I believe that there are 170 kids in the band this year. That's pretty good considering that there are less than 400 in the school. I was at that game too. One of the teachers is friends with Adam West. He was going to make an appearance until he found out that the trip from the Eastwood Mall to our school wouldn't fit into his schedule. He had commitments for the super hero convention going on at the same time.

It was still a good show with the surprise skydivers.
