Park is the central hub

Newport residents live in vintage homes near sprawling Mill Creek Park. In recent years, city officials have partnered with local non-profits to demolish abandoned houses and add new economy-boosting developments. Houses are situated on manicured lots, measuring less than ¼ acre, and streetlamps stand sentry along gridded, tree-lined streets where kids play and neighbors walk their dogs. “This is the first neighborhood in the area to have paved sidewalks and garages,” says Maureen Spear, Realtor with Nexthome Go30 Realty, who sold three homes here. “The homes are sturdy and well-built.”

Year-round recreation

Mill Creek Park, the largest of Youngstown’s MetroParks, offers 45 miles of trails and 20 miles of drives, a big selling point of the Newport neighborhood. The park features two 18-hole championship golf courses and a large performing arts pavilion that hosts MetroParks’ annual summer concert series. At the James L. Wick Recreation Area, young athletes can practice on various state-of-the-art sports fields or skate at the hockey rink. Paved multi-use nature trails wind through rolling hills and highlight the area’s historical landmarks like the Lanterman’s Mill, a 19th-century gristmill that still operates today.

Public transportation is popular

The Western Reserve Transit Authority (WRTA) provides free bus rides throughout the area, “The bus system here is well utilized,” says Erica Avery, a Realtor with Liberty Home Service who’s lived and worked in Youngstown her entire life. South Newport is bordered by Midlothian Boulevard, and U.S. Route 62 runs along the north side of the neighborhood. A few blocks east, Market Street is the main corridor locals use to access St. Elizabeth Boardman Hospital. U.S. Route 62 conveniently connects to nearby interstates that lead residents to Downtown Youngstown. Youngstown-Warren Regional Airport is an 18-mile drive via Ohio State Route 11.
