Hundreds of families travel to Jacot Park in Middletown, Ohio, for soccer matches every year. "People come in from out of state…the motels are jammed," says Coldwell Banker Heritage Realtor Bill Hobbs, adding that tournaments like Spring Blast and Midwest Soccer Classic are major boosts for the city's economy.

Creekview is primarily comprised of single-family houses constructed between the 1950s and '70s when companies like AK Steel still thrived in Middletown. Architecture is reflective
