Why Live in South Amherst

South Amherst, Ohio, is a small rural community characterized by its agricultural landscape and spacious residential areas. The village is surrounded by private farmlands and undeveloped natural spaces, providing a true country living experience. Residents often engage in 4-H or FFA projects, raising livestock such as chickens and cows. The community features recreational areas like South Amherst Community Park, which includes a basketball court, shaded picnic shelter, playground, and a large field for soccer games and picnicking. Douglas Field hosts Firelands Falcons baseball games and is open for public use, while Whiskeyville Golf Club offers public fairways. Lorain Raceway Park, just outside the village, attracts locals for high-speed racing events from April to October. The historic Buckeye Quarry, once the world’s largest sandstone quarry, is now a picturesque landmark.

Commercial options within the village are limited, with Whiskeyville Still N Grill and Piggy’s Main Street Market being notable spots. However, more businesses are available along Milan Elyria Road and in nearby Amherst and Oberlin, which are about 6 miles away. The village's main roads, Milan Elyria Road and North Lake Street, connect residents to Amherst employers and Interstate 90, leading to downtown Cleveland and Cleveland Hopkins International Airport in 30 to 40 minutes. The Firelands Local Schools district, serving kindergarten through 12th grade, has a high rating and strong athletics programs. Community events such as farmers markets, car shows, parades, and holiday celebrations foster a close-knit atmosphere. While seasonal flooding from two creeks can occasionally impact roads, it minimally affects homes.
