Fairlawn, Ohio prides itself on being an open and fair community. Since its official foundation in the early 70’s, the City of Fairlawn has been dedicated to improving the lives of its citizens through the improvement of the community.

Fairlawn is very committed to peace and quiet, green space, and separation between business centers and home life. As such, careful zoning laws have created a beautiful bedroom community where local commerce does not invade the scenic tranquility of the residential area. Fairlawn’s lack of manufacturing gives way to wonderful shopping space for homeowners – the expansive, modern Summit Mall is a nice focal point to the business district.

Recreation opportunities are also plentiful in this commuter community. There are several golf courses, as well as the beautiful Sand Run Metro Parks, where cyclists, hikers, runners, and families enjoy the outdoors. There are also wonderful community gardens where homeowners can grow flowers and vegetables. For indoor events, a movie theater sits right outside of the city limits. And, because of Fairlawn’s proximity to I-77, access to both downtown Akron and downtown Cleveland means a big concert or sporting event is never too far away.

For first-time home owners seeking a quiet place to take pride in their property and grow their families, Fairlawn is an excellent bet. The Copley-Fairlawn school district is one of Ohio’s best- it has been identified as Excellent with Distinction by the Ohio State Board of Education. This award-winning school district is home to strong academics and athletics, and is a source of pride for the community.
