Residential neighborhood next to downtown Massillon

Bordering downtown Massillon is Sippo Heights, a neighborhood filled with 20th century homes. Locals get their essentials at Meadows Plaza but go into the city to explore more retail, dining and entertainment options. Sippo Creek runs through three parks where people can walk through nature or play with their dogs. Students in the area attend Massillon City Schools, home to the Massillon Tigers. This Washington High School football team won the 2023 Ohio High School Athletic Association Division II State Championship game, solidifying them as the pride of the neighborhood.

Diverse 20th-century homes

Houses in Sippo Heights come in an array of styles and ages. Early 20th-century bungalows, ranch styles and Foursquares sit on grassy lawns. The narrow roads by these older homes are lined with sidewalks. Closer to Furnas Park are new traditional and split-levels with colonial influences built in the mid-to-late 1900s that feature more decorative landscaping. Prices for three bedrooms fall between $150,000 and $300,000.

Sippo Creek connects three parks

Reservoir Park has a playground and a walking path along Sippo Creek. The creek goes down to South Sippo Park, which has basketball courts and another play structure for kids to explore. Dogs are welcome on any of the five short walking trails with their owners, or they can run around at Furnas Park, which has two off-leash dog parks that separate large and small dogs.

Just 1 mile above the neighborhood is the Spring Hill Historic Home, built in 1821. This landmark served as a station on the Underground Railroad for several decades. Today, people can tour the home and learn about its extensive history. Canton, home to the Pro Football Hall of Fame, is about 7 miles from Sippo Heights. The Canton Cultural Center, home to the Canton Museum of Art, is also in the city. The Massillon Museum is 2 miles away and features the Paul Brown Exhibit, which highlights the life of former Tigers coach and co-founder of the Cleveland Browns and Cincinnati Bengals.

Massillon City Schools: The City of Champions

Part of the Massillon City School District, students can start their education at Whittier Elementary School. Here they can attend kindergarten through third grade before heading to fourth through sixth grade at Massillon Intermediate School. Massillon Junior High teaches seventh and eighth grade, and students go on to earn their diplomas from Washington High School (WHS). All four of these schools are rated B-minus by Niche. WHS is home to the Massillon Tigers, who just won the state championship. “It’s the first win since 1970,” says Aaron Robinson, Realtor with Keller Williams Legacy Group Realty and lifetime resident of Massillon. “Everybody is crazy about that.” This win adds more weight to Massillon’s nickname, “The City of Champions.”

Massillon events held year-round

Residents can drive the 1 mile into Massillon for countless events throughout the year. The annual Bulldog and Tigers showdown is celebrated with the Beat McKinley parade, and a holiday parade accompanies a Christmas tree lighting ceremony every year. Duncan Plaza hosts the Summer Concert Series, a series of weekly live shows every summer.

SARTA, state routes and airports

Stark Area Regional Transit Authority (SARTA) has a route that runs through the neighborhood and allows residents who need extra assistance to schedule direct rides through the Proline ADA Paratransit. State Routes 172 and 241 run alongside the community and will eventually feed into Interstate 77, which allows drivers to access Cleveland and other central Ohio cities. The Akron-Canton Airport is about 11 miles north of the neighborhood, flies into popular US destinations, and connects to international flights.

Meadows Plaza and Massillon

Sippo Heights is home to Meadows Plaza, a shopping mall with various stores and restaurants. “It’s really close to all the shopping you need,” Robinson says. Residents can get groceries at Giant Eagle or Aldi and other essentials at Target and Home Depot, which sit at the bottom of the neighborhood and are within 2 miles of most homes. Among the chain restaurants in the plaza is Agavero Bar and Grill, a locally owned Mexican restaurant. People also cross State Route 241 to explore the retail and dining in downtown Massillon, such as Chloe’s Diner.
