Community close to YSU

Landsdowne is a residential neighborhood in northeast Ohio that has a rural vibe in certain sections, with its wooded patches and narrow roads. Still, it strikes a suburban balance with its proximity to Youngstown's urban epicenter. "It's one of the cheapest places to live in the TriCounty," says Realtor Rollin Gosney with TG Real Estate, who lived in Landsdowne for three years. "it's perfect for investors who want to get into the rental market or for first –time home buyers. I bought my first place there when I was 18." Another big draw to the area is Lansdowne's proximity to Youngstown State University (YSU), only a 2-mile drive on local streets. "A lot of people from the school come here," Gosney says.

Four Seasons Flea and Farm Market: a local favorite

Red and White is a neighborhood grocery store that offers a small selection of goods. For a larger variety of choices, Save A Lot is located 3 miles south. Landsdowne has a couple of dining options, like Harmony Grill on McGuffey Road, which is popular with residents for its seafood, sandwiches, and classic soul food sides. Levels Sports Bar & Grill is a watering hole where locals gather for food and TV sports. On Wednesdays and Sundays, residents can drive 3 miles on local roads to the Four Seasons Flea and Farm Market, where local farmers, crafters and artisans set up to display their wares. Once the site of an airport, the Lincoln Knolls market has space for up to 600 vendors, and people filter in and out all year long, looking for fresh produce, vintage finds and unique crafts. For more retail and dining options, Landsdowne locals can head downtown, where they'll find trendy bars and restaurants, as well as renowned museums such as The Butler Institute of American Art.
