With a history of abundant manufacturing decades behind it, the city of Warren is economically reinventing itself. "Warren has gone through a long depressive state, but it's turned the corner," says Heather Rucker, Councilwoman-at-Large for the city. "We have a lot of new businesses looking at us, and there's plenty of development coming." This investment and the low cost of living attract homebuyers to this seat of Trumbull County. "There's plenty to do out here that just didn't exist five to ten years ago," says Marcus Agee, a Realtor with Keller Williams Chervenic.
Warren rests along the scenic, winding Mahoning River.

Golf courses, riverwalks and fishing
The city's golf course, Old Avalon, is an 18-hole, par 71, with acres of surrounding foliage. The Riverwalk follows the Mahoning River for five miles and serves as a meeting spot for official and unofficial events. Other parks include athletic fields, pavilions and open stretches of manicured fields.

Artwork in Dave Grohl Alley
Warren's cultural centers include the Trumbull Art Gallery, the National Packard Museum and the Harriet Taylor Upton House, the writer and activist's former home.

Many music fans have taken a pilgrimage to Dave Grohl Alley, where local artists have covered the street and brick walls with murals, sculptures, and other artistic messages of love to the Warren native. The Grand Resort is a luxury hotel and spa featuring four championship golf courses, seven bars and restaurants, a cigar lounge and an art museum: The Medici. "When you're in the pool in the middle of all that atmosphere, you could swear you're in Vegas," says Yacoub. "But you're in Warren—it's amazing."

Mom and pop restaurants downtown
Most local shoppers drive 8 miles southeast to Niles for the Eastwood Mall. One of the area's most popular areas for retail and franchise restaurants, the mall attracts Ohioans from the entire Youngstown-Warren area. Warren's mom-and-pop eateries are particularly important to residents. "The Italian food is some of the best on the East Coast," says Yacoub. "When you live here, you've got to hit up all the local restaurants—it's a must." Many of these spots exist in the area's downtown, which has begun encouraging pedestrian traffic by opening designated outdoor recreation areas in places like Courthouse Square.

I began my journey in 2021 as a Real Estate Agent. Prior to My career in the Real Estate Industry, I was in the Medical Field and Remodeled Homes. During My life I wore many hats! From being a single mother of 4 to acquiring my State Tested Nurse Aide License, STNA Supervisor position, and Dietary Manager Certification. During this time, I also Remodeled Homes in the evenings and weekends, this allowed me to learn many aspects of Home Renovation over the years. The passion I have for helping people, along with the knowledge I have acquired over the years has led me to where I am now, as a Realtor.
I am a Graduate of Hondros College, where I received my Real Estate license. I currently live in Leetonia, Ohio with my Fiancé and puppies. I was born in Youngstown Ohio and lived in Mahoning County until I graduated from High School. When I am not busy with Real Estate, I enjoy crafting, baking, and spending time with my children and grandchildren. I also have a passion for shooting pool, so you may find me at a local pool hall.
