This neighborhood is home to the Massillon Tigers
Just east of downtown Massillon is New England, a residential neighborhood built between the Tuscarawas River and Wetmore Creek. New England is conveniently close to shopping, sports and schools, and even features Paul Brown Tiger Stadium, home of the Massillon Tigers high school football team, within its borders. But the hometown cheer doesn’t end at the football field, according to Massillon locals. “People are friendly, helpful and community-oriented, and there’s big support for local businesses,” says Cindy Rudy, a local and Massillon Public Library Circulation Manager. “It’s a locals-first place.”
Historic single-family homes are found near downtown
Built from the 1950s to the present, New England’s homes are comprised of Colonial Revival, Foursquare and ranch styles. Residential streets are often set against tall, dense stands of trees. Single-family homes with a median lot size of about two-tenths of an acre typically list between $150,000 and $320,000. Older properties that are less than 1,000 square feet are listed at around $90,000. New developments, such as Gray Ridge Estates, offer bigger homes for about $300,000.

New England has two public school districts
Properties are zoned for either Massillon City School District and Perry Local School District. Students in Perry District may attend Watson Elementary, graded A-minus by Niche; Pfeiffer Intermediate School and Edison Middle School, both graded B-plus; and Perry High School, graded B-minus and offering AP classes. Students in the Massillon District may attend Franklin Elementary School, Massillon Intermediate School, Massillon Junior High School and Washington High School, all of which are graded B-minus by Niche. According to a representative of the Massillon City Schools Athletics Department, spectator tickets for football games at the Paul Brown Tiger Stadium, named for a Hall of Fame coach who once coached the school's team are sold on the Washington High School website, and all varsity games are live-streamed online for those without tickets. Sellouts are common.

Annual events bring the community together
Massillon hosts annual festivals for residents to enjoy live music, food from downtown vendors, shows, games and family-friendly activities. “Massillon is a wonderful historic district,” says Rudy, “and the city’s events are free of charge for the community.” Winter celebrations include the Holiday Parade & Light Up event and the Community Candlelight Walk. As loyal fans of Massillon Tigers, neighbors also throw tailgating parties for football season.
