Relocating to Cuyahoga Falls
Virtual tours, back-to-back showings when you visit, research tools for every area, and a plan for timing.
Relocating to Cuyahoga Falls From Out of Town
Relocating to Cuyahoga Falls puts you in the middle of Summit County: about 10 minutes from Akron, and roughly 30 to 35 minutes from Cleveland, Canton, and Medina. It's a real hometown with a revamped downtown on the falls, Cuyahoga Valley National Park right next door, and one city bill for sewer, water, electric, and trash.

What to Know Before You Move
Two sides, two zip codes. Locals talk about the west side (44223) and the east side (44221), split roughly along Front Street and 13th Street.
Two school districts. Most of the city is Cuyahoga Falls City Schools, and the Northampton area is Woodridge. Always confirm by address.
Basements. Many east-side Heslop homes don't have one, a surprise for a lot of people moving in.

What relocation looks like in Cuyahoga Falls
Century homes near Front Street, 1950s Heslops, and newer Northampton allotments, right next to Cuyahoga Valley National Park.
Our hometown: century homes near Front Street, Heslops, Northampton's newer allotments, and Cuyahoga Valley National Park next door.
- The homes
- Century homes, especially near Front Street and some of the numbered streets; some really well updated, some not touched in a while. Lots of Cape Cod homes by builder Heslop, locally called "Heslops," mainly built in the 1950s and 60s; some have no basement, and the ones without basements are on the east side. Also ranches, colonials, split levels, and condos. Condominium allotments with HOAs. Newer builds on the northwest side in the Northampton area, in allotments with HOAs that are not very strict.
- Why people choose it
- Younger families and younger couples, drawn by affordability. Downsizers too.
- Schools people ask about
- Two main public districts: Cuyahoga Falls City School District, and Woodridge Local School District for the Northampton / northwest side. Both have new or newer facilities. Private schools within the city as well.
- Getting around
- Front Street and roughly 13th Street divide the city: 44223 is the west side, 44221 is the east side (confirmed by Jessica 2026-09-22). Centrally located: Akron about 10 minutes, Cleveland about 35, Canton about 30, Medina about 30.
- Nearby
- Right up against Cuyahoga Valley National Park and the Metro Parks. The river. Front Street has a DORA, festivals, breweries, and speakeasies. Quirk Cultural Center, Water Works water park, the Natatorium, Western Reserve Hospital. The city runs its own municipal utilities, so sewer, water, electric, and trash come on one bill.
