A home with an easy commute to Cleveland

Located 11 miles southwest of downtown Cleveland, Parma Heights offers an easy commute to those looking for a home away from the big city's commotion while also having a short drive to work downtown. On afternoons and weekends, locals can camp in and hike the community's parks and preserves when the weather is nice. Those who'd instead shop and dine can pick from various stores and restaurants to fit nearly any budget. Outside of all these things, folks looking to attend a particular occasion can always get to Cleveland's big concert halls, clubs and stadiums.

Pearl Road goes straight to Cleveland

Parma Heights' main thoroughfare is Pearl Road. Also known as Highway 42, the road cuts through the community diagonally, with other essential streets, including York Road and West Ridgewood Drive, leading to it. "Parma Heights is appealing for its location," says Vittardi. "You can get to Interstate 71 fairly quickly." The city is also near Cleveland Hopkins International Airport, less than four miles northwest. Given the easy access to highways, the community is particularly car-dependent, with metro bus routes only moving through the area's main roads and several amenities being beyond walking distance from most homes.

This city has so many styles of home

Parma Heights is home to various house styles, from foursquare, overhang and split-level homes to new traditional and even Tudor-revival houses. The price range for Parma Heights starts at $150,000 to only as high as $370,000—several thousand dollars under the country's median price of $417,700. "[It] has a lot of affordable midcentury-style homes," says local Realtor Mark Vittardi. "They appeal to buyers looking for something they can maintain, update and renovate to their liking." Owner of the Vittardi Real Estate Group, Vittardi has spent 11 years in Cuyahoga County, plenty of time to familiarize himself with the local market. The average lot is home to fenced backyards no bigger than 40 feet long and 80 feet wide with a shed, patio or trampoline. Most driveways take up a third of the front to create enough room for two cars.

Two places have all the shops

Southland Shopping Center and the Shoppes at Parma are just outside of the city's southwest side along Pearl Road. Both shopping districts offer unique restaurants and traditional shopping, including clothing at Cato Fashion and grocery stores like Giant Eagle or Marc's. Greenbrier Commons, at the center of the area, serves as the city's community center and offers discount stores, hardware stores and several restaurants. One locally owned establishment, The Club House Bar and Grill, gets much attention from locals and visitors for its fused American and European menu. There is also Potelah Potato and Juice Bar, which serves custom baked potatoes on Huffman Road. Cleveland's Tower City Shopping Center is 10 miles north and is the nearest mall. Willie's Farm Market is the nearest farmers' market, a 3-mile drive south on Pearl Road.

Parma Heights has an International Festival

St. Bosco Church is one of the city's leading event venues. One event the church helps run is the International Festival in August. Festivities include fireworks, live performances, a casino and a raffle. Nearby Cleveland also offers its fair share of events—the Cleveland Museum of Art hosts Sensory-Friendly Saturdays for neurodivergent visitors and families.

Mind the Big Creek

Local waterway Big Creek cuts right through Parma Heights, which occasionally floods the properties along its flow. Some properties get no more than a few inches of water, but other places at lower elevations can have more than three feet of water.
