Despite the distance from downtown, locals enjoy their own selection of restaurants that line the bordering thoroughfares of the community, as well as some shopping spots at the center of the neighborhood. With two community centers and a neighborhood association, residents of Market Heights work to keep their neighborhood strong and connected through frequent community events and initiatives.

Turn of the century colonials and mid-century ranch-style homes line the streets
Winding roads with narrow sidewalks curl through Market Heights, dotted with yards larger than in the southern neighborhoods closer to downtown.

Lots range from 5,000 square feet to half an acre. Many homes were built in the early 1900s to the 1950s, and homeowners have retained original details like wood paneling and arched doorways. Prices range from $130,000 to $260,000.

Milk and Honey and Dioguardi's Italian Deli
Milk and Honey, along Cleveland Avenue, feels like a classic 1950s diner, serving burgers and ice cream sundaes. “It’s an old-fashioned diner that we loved growing up,” says Jenna Jeffery, a Canton resident and employee at the Canton Visitor’s Center. “My mom would take us to the McKinley Memorial Library, and then we’d go to Milk and Honey afterward.” Inside, a neon sign of an ice cream cone stretches across the ceiling while decorative license plates and a vintage-style mural cover the walls. Jeffery also mentions that her mom goes to Dioguardi’s Italian Deli twice a week. “They have fresh Italian pasta and capicola,” says Jeffery. “The family that owns it is lovely.” The DioGuardis have run the deli since its opening in 1906. For groceries, there’s a Giant Eagle Supermarket in the center of the neighborhood.
