More than a mall
Cleveland residents probably know Westlake from Crocker Park, the sprawling, mixed-use shopping, dining and entertainment plaza. But there’s more to Westlake than retail. As Realtor Dawn Balog of Russell Estate Services, who has been selling homes in the area for nearly 20 years, puts it, "This city is impeccable. They're constantly developing in Westlake. And don't forget the award-winning schools!" With a top-rated school system, a community that gathers for holidays and farmers' markets and homes at various price points, this neighborhood about 20-miles from downtown Cleveland has something for everyone.

What's happening at Crocker Park
"Croker Park is the mainstay of the city," says Realtor Mary Frances Weir with RE/MAX Crossroads, who specializes in selling homes on the Westside of Cleveland. This modern, trendy, mixed-use plaza is home to over 100 retailers, from national chains like Gap and Lululemon to local shops like Cleveland Clothing and Apricot Lane Boutique. Folks can grab groceries from Trader Joe’s or Market District or eat out at one of Crocker Park’s various restaurants. Condado Tacos is a popular spot with colorful murals and creatively named foil-wrapped tacos. When it’s nice out, the restaurant opens a wall extending to an outdoor patio area. Graeter’s is a great dessert option, making ice cream using a small-batch French pot process. Crocker Park also has family-friendly entertainment, like escape rooms, an indoor trampoline park and a movie theatre. Cyclebar and Esporta Fitness are great exercise options. American Greetings and Travel Centers for America is headquartered here, and there are apartment, condo and townhome housing options around the mall.

Sprawling New Traditional and modern Craftsman-style homes in these areas typically cost between $500,000 and $1 million. “There’s also a middle market with homes from the 1960s to 80’s, mostly of Cape Cods and modest ranch-style homes. There’s also an array of mid-rise condos and 55-plus communities,” says Weir.

Rec centers and local parks
"Westlake is also known for its recreation center," says Balog. The Westlake City Recreation Center has running tracks, a fitness room, an aquatics center and a fishing pond.
