Bungalows and ranch styles right by the lake

Homes are typically two and three-bedroom, ranging from $110,000 for a smaller bungalow to $280,000 for a larger ranch style or split-level. Prices tend to rise the closer one gets to Meyers Lake. “The area also has a lot of newer housing developments popping up around the lake,” says Crystal Bean, the fair secretary for the Stark County Fairgrounds for almost two years, who is a proud Stark County resident.

Just south of Meyers Lake is the scene for the Stark County Fair, which has taken place the week before Labor Day for over 175 years. “The event strives to be community-oriented,” with exciting experiences like “the truck and tractor pull, which is a huge hit,” says Bean. The fair also features music, animals, delicious fairground treats and exciting rides. For more seasonal fun, Tom Benson Stadium, which is adjacent to the Pro Football Hall of Fame, hosts numerous high school and college football games every fall.
