After undergoing recent revitalization, Downtown Youngstown is growing to be a popular destination in Youngstown. Similar to other downtown districts, this part of Youngstown houses government offices, business offices, warehouses, and an arena, but what makes Downtown Youngstown special is its new collection of restaurants, shops, nightlife hotspots, entertainment venues, museums, theaters, and art galleries. This growing neighborhood is making a name for itself with unique additions, like the Roger & Gloria Jones Children's Center for Science & Technology and the Youngstown Foundation Amphitheatre. Surprisingly, with all of these amenities, Downtown Youngstown offers a variety of affordable housing options, although there are several luxury apartments as well. Bordering Youngstown State University campus, the neighborhood is also a great choice for students and faculty. Rockville has everything you need, but Akron and Cleveland are about an hour’s drive away, perfect for a day or weekend trip.
