I live in Lakewood which is right next to Cleveland.  It takes me about 10
minutes tops to get to my favorite hangouts downtown.  It's a nice area for
anyone whether they are young, old, married, single. Lots to do just in
Lakewood itself.  There are also other suburbs like Rocky River, Westlake and
then there's the East side which I'm not to familiar with.  I know a lot of
people who have moved here from all over, mostly people in the airline
industry, and they have really liked living here and have now made permanent
homes here.  I have friends who have moved to San Fransisco and Seattle and
when they decide it's time to settle down and have a family they plan on
moving back here.  Oh yeah and sometimes the winters can be rough but I'm
beginning to forget since the weather patterns have been very strange the
last 2 years, yesterday it was 70 degrees which is not normal.  Last year we
had maybe 2 big storms and one of them almost paralyzed certain areas with
tons of snow.  I happen to enjoy the different seasons.
