Seventh biggest city in Ohio

Its location provides various outdoor amenities, from parks and nature preserves to playgrounds and sports fields. Children have access to multiple top-rated schools in the Parma City School District, and proximity to major highways facilitates easy access to downtown Cleveland. Additionally, the city boasts a thriving shopping and dining scene with a mix of big box stores, national chains, and local establishments.

Diverse housing options with low inventory
Parma offers a diverse range of housing options, including bungalows, Ranch-style homes, classic Colonials, split-level residences, and Cape Cods. Despite the diverse housing stock, the market inventory in Parma tends to be spread thin, with less than a month's worth of inventory available. This scarcity underscores the demand for housing in the area, making it a competitive market for both buyers and sellers, says Realtor Vanessa Schiavi, Realtor of RE/Max Above Beyond. "It's a good spot for the middle income... houses in the $250,000-$300,000 range... a sweet spot for buyers," Schiavi says. Most homes sell for between $139,000 to $400,000, while the median price is $198,000. Homes line streets with front yards full of grass, most featuring driveways and garages. Neighborhoods in Parma are full of sidewalks.
