Affordable living in a close-knit suburban community

Along the shores of the Mahoning River is the little suburban community of McDonald. Historically a company town for the Carnegie Steel Company, the community has since developed into a small but tight-knit community. “This community is pretty small, only about five miles wide, but very tight-knit and affordable,” says William Broxson from Century 21. Locals live in humble suburban homes minutes away from public spaces, frequently hosting community get-togethers and seasonal events.

Established homes in a community where everyone knows each other

Locals live along wide suburban streets and quiet avenues fringed by tall oak trees and well-landscaped lawns. Home styles range from modest ranch-style homes to traditional Foursquare and Cape Cod homes. Spacious lawns are a common feature of McDonald’s homes, and locals go all out for decorating around the holidays. “McDonald is very tight-knit, to the point that locals will be able to spot who’s a local and who’s not just looking at the local traffic,” says William Broxson, a local realtor from Century 21 with $6 million in total sales. Home prices range from $52,000 for a modest home up to $443,000 for homes with larger home lots.
