Warren
Suburban Neighborhood in Youngstown, Ohio
Mahoning County 44507, 44511
Improvements for the integrity of houses
The variety of architectural styles in town is limited, but the condition of the homes varies greatly. Some feature recent renovations, new roofs and pristine vinyl siding, while others need a little love and a lot of elbow grease. Fortunately, homeowners can access a program that replaces leaky roofs at no cost to improve their well-being. "We've been active in Youngstown since 1983. So, I've seen the neighborhoods change over and over throughout the years, and they're currently trending up, not down," Cursaro says. Worker's cottages with two-and-a-half stories and wide porches from the 1920s are abundant in the area, ranging between $25,000 and $100,000. Clusters of tall trees line each backyard, and the plowed lots have left plenty of green space behind. Though sidewalks are beside the gridded streets, they are unlevel and overgrown with weeds and grass, making them less than ideal for walking.

Thousands of acres of outdoor fun
One of the area's best gems is Mill Creek Park. The outdoor trek stretches over 2,000 acres of streams, lush evergreen trees and sports fields. Hikers can explore 15 miles of trails past the expansive Lake Glacier, and those looking for athletic outlets can visit the sand volleyball courts, batting cages, and low-par golf course. Even closer to home, the Edith Kauffman Quarry Garden has densely wooded trails that lead to Ford Nature Center. Residents interested in learning about native plants and wildlife can participate in the center's exhibits and workshops.

Schools undergoing changes
The youngest Warren students can begin learning at Taft Elementary. Rated a C-minus by Niche, it is just under 3 miles away from the homes in Warren. Kirkmere School currently serves kindergarten through eighth grade and is rated a C-minus. In the coming 2024-2025 school year, it is transitioning into a middle school, serving fifth through eighth only. Many finish learning at East High School, rated a C-minus. It has an active JROTC program where students learn leadership strategies and logical thinking.

Buses to Youngstown
Just 2 miles from Youngstown's downtown area, Warren provides easy access for city workers. Buses run along Glenwood Ave and Market Street, so those without cars can get where they need to go. Mercy Health—St. Elizabeth Youngstown Hospital is 3 miles north of Warren, and the closest commercial airport, Youngstown-Warren Regional Airport, is 13 miles north.

Free groceries for those who qualify
Glenwood Fresh Market is in the neighborhood and provides free fresh fruits, vegetables and other health-based items for Youngstown residents. Health screenings, cooking demonstrations and classes on nutritional literacy also take place at the location, and memberships to the market are based on Federal Poverty Guidelines. Family Dollar and Dollar General are along Market Street, where many residents stock up on groceries, but Save A Lot is less than 2 miles east for those willing to travel. Just south of the neighborhood, Savannah Joe's has classic American fare and Southern dishes like jambalaya, shrimp and grits and fried catfish. With the slogan "Food for Your Soul," it's the go-to spot for a comfort meal.

Crime
Warren has a CAP Index score of 6/10, with violent crimes ranking the highest. The score for homicide is 10/10, while assault with a weapon is 9/10. Many programs run in the area to make it a better place to live. The Youngstown Neighborhood Development Corporation has many initiatives to improve the lives and homes of Warren natives, and community gathering spaces, like Youngstown Playhouse & Youth Theater, bring residents together regularly. According to Cursaro, "It's all about perspective. Whether one sees the glass half empty or half full is up to them individually."

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
