Cleveland Ohio City Profile

Cleveland is located in northeastern Ohio, on the southern shore of Lake Erie and on the Cuyahoga River. In its early years, Cleveland became a manufacturing giant due to its location at the head of several railroad lines and canals. Due in part to the decline of heavy manufacturing, Cleveland's businesses are now more often in the financial services, insurance, and healthcare businesses. Cleveland has often been hailed as the "comeback city," due to its efforts to redevelop the metropolitan area in recent decades. The refurbished downtown area includes the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Cleveland Browns stadium, and Jacobs Field, where the Cleveland Indians play, as well as an eclectic array of restaurants and hotels.
