A resident of the Willard neighborhood on his daily commute.
A community with conveniences
Willard is a neighborhood in the City of Warren that maintains a small-town feel. The area expands from downtown Warren to the City of Niles, and the residential community is set against an industrial backdrop characterized by construction businesses and steel manufacturers. The community shares resources with surrounding municipal areas, including dining and shopping. Narrow, tree-lined streets with sidewalks are set up in a grid pattern. "This community is very walkable," says Kate Pfouts, archivist for the Trumbull County Historical Society. "You always hear kids playing outside and see neighbors taking strolls or walking their dogs."
Homes date back to 1800s
Many homes in Warren County date back to the early 1800s, and Willard comprises several architectural styles. The earliest designs of the day were Victorin and bungalows. "Even though most have been updated, many of the homes' original details have remained intact," says Kate Pfouts, archivist for the Trumbull County Historical Society." They are gorgeous." Buyers will also find Cape Cods and ranch-style. Lots in Willard are less than ¼ acre, suitable for a small garden, and most homes have garages. Most residences enter the market between $16,000 and $103,000.
