Amherst Heights-Clearview
Neighborhood in Massillon, Ohio
Stark County 44646, 44647
Ranch-style homes and stately brick colonials
Amherst Heights fans out from Massillon, stretching to the north with homes spread out on property ranging from a quarter-acre to one acre. Towering oaks alongside green lawns and hedges give the community a natural atmosphere despite its proximity to Massillon and Canton. Architectural styles include two-story brick colonials, new traditional and ranch-style homes. Many residences feature paved driveways that lead into attached two-car garages, so street parking isn’t common in residential areas. On average, home prices here range from $160,000 to $450,000.

A prehistoric park, a fishing pond and a country cub
Parks in this neighborhood have more than scenery—they have a connection to the past—one park in particular, the Jackson Bog State Nature Preserve, has a history dating back millions of years. During the Ice Age, a series of natural events created a strip of land between two glaciers that, over the centuries, developed the landscape into what is now known as the Jackson Bog. Residents can explore this historic park and its natural features via a mile and a half of marked trails. For more outdoor recreation, the 70-acre North Park features an extensive athletic complex, fishing pond and playground just across the street from Jackson High School. Golfers can join the Shady Hollows Country Club, which also offers members an Olympic-sized swimming pool, fitness room and six tennis courts. Hikers can trek along the Ohio & Erie Canal Towpath Trail, a 90-mile stretch that runs through the neighborhood with several trailheads along the Tuscarawas River.
