Suburban-style homes and nearly-rural open spaces sandwich between commerce and industry in Southeast Massillon, a neighborhood adjacent to the town’s core and west of Canton, Ohio. But it’s not all work and home life. Golf courses, ballparks, and access to a renowned trail combine with a deeper-than-typical connection to football to define the neighborhood of about 1,110 homes.
Homes are clustered in the center half, ranging from properties of about a quarter acre to more than a full acre. New traditional homes with colonial influences and older, updated ranch-style homes dot broad streets with narrow sidewalks, especially west of Richville Drive Southwest. In areas with larger lots, though, sidewalks are not as common. Most homes sell for $100,000 to $300,000, whereas homes constructed in 2010 or later range from $300,000 to $550,000.
The Massillon City School District serves the neighborhood. Students can attend Franklin Elementary School, Massillon Intermediate School, Massillon Junior High and Washington High School, all of which received a B-minus from Niche. The Washington High football team’s influence and the legacy of its more-than-century-old rivalry with nearby McKinley High goes beyond the gridiron and the high schools. “People are super passionate about the football team,” says Tyler Kuhns, a Realtor with Stewardship Realty, LLC, who grew up 20 miles from the neighborhood.
Located on Warmington Road Southwest is John Glenn Grove Park, which includes a trailhead for Congressman Ralph Regula Towpath Trail, a 110-mile-long Ohio & Erie Canal path popular with hikers and cyclists. Two miles northeast is Arthur Genshaft Memorial Park, which features recently updated ballparks reserved for softball leagues. The park also has a concession stand and pavilion. The Legends of Massillon, a 27-hole resort-style golf course and clubhouse, is also home to an indoor and outdoor event venue for weddings and parties. Public access to the golf course is available but limited. Downtown Massillon, just north of the neighborhood, hosts the Paul Brown Museum, which honors the former Washington High coach who went on to a Pro Football Hall of Fame career coaching the Cleveland Browns and Cincinnati Bengals. Located on Lincoln Way East, the Massillon Museum features several art exhibits while providing interactive and educational events all year. Nearby, the Massillon Public Library has regular book recommendations and a full calendar of programs for residents to enjoy.
Lowe’s Home Improvement, Menards, Wal-mart Supercenter, Aldi, Starbucks and a variety of national chain fast-food restaurants operate around the cloverleaf confluence of U.S. highways 30 and 62 and Ohio Route 21 in the southwest corner of the neighborhood. It’s about a 7-mile drive from the farthest portion of the neighborhood. Not far away, on Erie Street South is Erie Street Pub, a popular sports tavern serving traditional pub grub. Just outside Southeast Massillon, about 1 mile north of the neighborhood, is Cameo Grille, serving burgers and classic American fare for more than 70 years.
The Stark Area Regional Transit Authority has one set route that takes passengers from the neighborhood into the city and offers Proline ADA Paratransit, a more accessible public transit for those unable to use the fixed routes. Residents can take U.S. Route 62 to get into the city or hop on U.S. Route 30 for 10 miles to reach Canton. For longer-distance travel, the Akron-Canton Airport is about 14 miles north.
