The heart of Downtown Warren
Located in the heart of Warren is the walkable downtown neighborhood of Central City. Planted among business corridors, the community has a growing dining and arts scene that includes breweries, bars and performance venues. Among the extremes of grand historic architecture and modest housing styles are colorful murals inviting locals to explore the area. "There is a key group of doers who have done a lot to ensure that Warren puts its best foot forward," says Meghan Reed, director of the Trumbull County Historical Society. "They've hung flower baskets, strung lights and decorations for Christmas and managed parades. In the past five to seven years, downtown has undergone a transformation through business revitalization and significant community investments."

Commercial sector welcomes newcomers
New establishments continue to open and draw in people living within walking distance. Casual spots like The Mocha House and Nova Coffee Co. are favorites for a morning pick-me-up. Modern Methods Brewing Company, Warren's oldest brewery, hosts trivia on Thursday nights and a night market every other month. West & Main has live music and a diverse menu, from ramen to poutine and tacos. Save A Lot is just north of Atlantic Street Northeast, and the Warren Flea and Farmers Market is on the other side of U.S. State Route 422. The indoor and outdoor market runs from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. every Tuesday and Saturday year-round. Central City is also right next door to Courthouse Square. "The whole downtown is built around the historic courthouse," says Michael Cline, a Realtor with Kelly Warren Associates who's lived in Trumbull County for 50 years. "It's big, and when I say it's big, I mean it's White House big." The Square hosts many community events, like the Full Spectrum Pride in the Valley Festival. Trumbull Art Gallery looks out onto The Square and features exhibits from local artists. Music lovers see live performances at the Robins Theatre, which frequently sells out. For more practical needs, the neighborhood has several convenience and supply stores, such as Circle K, Handyman Supply, Family Dollar and Firestone. Curated Vintage Goods makes for a relaxing Saturday afternoon sifting through antique finds.

River Rock at the Amp all summer long
Less than 1 mile west is a leafy escape; Perkins Park is a popular spot for leisurely walks along the Mahoning River. Visitors can enjoy views of historic landmarks, use the playground and athletic fields or sit and reflect at the rose garden. The park also houses the Warren Community Amphitheatre, which has hosted the annual River Rock music festival for 15 years. Classic rock bands fill the park air every weekend, rain or shine, throughout the summer. Perkins Park is right across from the Warren-Trumbull County Public Library, a major community meeting point for all ages. Residents can access two community gardens closer to home: Central City Unity and The Giving Tree. For extra support and some community connection, The Salvation Army Warren Corp Community Center is at the base of the neighborhood and welcomes all.

Private investment coming downtown
"There's been a lot of private investment into downtown," Cline says. "They've turned a lot of the older buildings into higher-end executive condos and apartments." Condos typically cost between $150,000 and $195,000. Cline shares that these renovations have "drawn young professionals right out of college to move back downtown," which has stimulated growth in the area's economy and industry. Outside Central City's immediate commercial sphere are minimal traditional and Craftsman dwellings, American Foursquares and bungalow-inspired workers' cottages. On average, detached properties range between $38,000 and $95,000.
