Neighborhoods
Cleveland is a city of neighborhoods. They are, however, spaced apart and not so easy to find. Some of the best are close to downtown. The Warehouse District is a lively area with loft-style apartments just blocks from Public Square. Ohio City, perhaps the best find in Cleveland, is just across the Detroit-Superior Bridge. Other interesting neighborhoods are near University Circle, including Little Italy. And, yes, Cleveland even has a small Chinatown, though it doesn’t show up on many listings.
