Anyone give me any insight on this area? Nice area? Livable for a 30 year old single male?

History
In 1817, a sixteen-year-old boy named Ethan Alling arrived in Township Five in the tenth range of the Connecticut Land Company, also known as Millsville. Alling was to survey the four hundred acres his Connecticut family had purchased. He is considered the first settler of the town that would be renamed Twinsburg, and eventually he became the postmaster, stagecoach operator, merchant and hotel proprietor of the community.

A set of identical twins from Killingworth, Connecticut purchased some 4,000 acres (16 km?) of land in 1819 and began selling small parcels at low prices to attract other settlers. The Wilcox twins then offered six acres of land for a public square and $20.00 toward starting the first school if the residents would change the settlement's name from Millsville to Twinsburg. Moses and Aaron Wilcox were reportedly so identical only their closest friends could tell them apart. They were lifelong business partners; held all their property in common; married sisters; had the same number of children; contracted the same fatal ailment; died within hours of each other and are buried in the same grave in Twinsburg?s Locust Grove Cemetery. Since the first settlers arrived in the early 1800?s, the area has had a long, distinguished history. To that end, The Twinsburg Historical Society was formed in 1963. Finding a home in what was originally the Samuel Bissell Institute, built in the 1860?s, the Society?s museum houses pictures, papers and documents pertaining to the area?s history. Tools and equipment used by early artisans and farmers, furniture, household items, clothes, books, letters and records of Twinsburg?s early citizens are all showcased. The Mail Pouch Tobacco sign proudly displayed on the barn was one of the last ones painted by famous barn painter, Harley Warrick. And then he became a CRACKHEAD and started sucking dick at the local Amish saloon. :confused

Jeff,

We have some customers in the Twinsburg area. I go through there every few days. I'm not sure how much industry I'd say they have. I know there's a Chrysler plant there, Windstream (a phone/dsl provider) and a few others. As far as stores, they're big enough to have a Best Buy etc so you could probably find most of what you need. Car shops are lacking in that area, It'd be a bit of a drive to Buschurs. Overall, probably not too bad a place to live. Do you need to live in the city? Akron/Canton aren't really all that far away. Clevelands probly about 30 minutes. Hey, I'd have someone to work on cars with on occasion. I myself am living in Akron at Coventry Crossing. It's right across from Firestone Golf Course. Nice area. Anyways, I'll see if I can't get you some more information. I would say cost of living is a little cheaper than Columbus. It's not a huge metropolitas or anything. You might also look at living in Aurora. It's very close (10 minutes would be on the high end) and it's a nice little community. PM me if you have any questions about it in general and I'll try to help. And no, you can't visit Geoga Lake anymore...sorry.

:) I know I definitely convienced you... :rolleyes:
That was wikipedias version I just added to it. :Woohoo
Come home to peaceful bliss in Twinsburg and tend to your sheep and shop @ Bestbuy for all your Amish hating needs.:eek

Don't have to live there, it just happens to be where a job listing I found is that happens to be the same thing I do now (Alltel Wireless).

And why is Geauga Lake out? Wouldn't matter, anyways, I'd still make the drive to Cedar Point.

[90tsiguy]

I would recommend living in the Aurora area...I don't know why, I guess I'm not familiar with the housing developments in Twinsburg. As for Geauga Lake, they closed because of lack of business if I'm not mistaken. I think that's rediculous. I saw white trash there all the time! (I think I might have just crossed the line there....) Anyways, hopefully you'll move back to the area. It'd be good to have another one of the "OG's around" back in Ohio...now if we can convert Dale back to the dark side and get Jamie to move as well...

Be careful for what you wish for :D

[Iwishiwascool]

My family lives 20 minutes from there. I did some construction work out there many years ago too. It is quiet, 30 minutes from cleveland, and close to most East side attractions.

I'd live there.

[Mike C]

It's a nice little town. The residential area is nice and everything is convenient and close. It's obviously not far from downtown Cleveland as far as night life goes too.

[FastestOneHere!]

Fuck Cleveland?:D

[Shearer]

There aren't a lot of gay bars in Twinsburg though. You might be more comfortable if you lived in Lakewood. :D

[ucsigep]

I will kill you Ron. :)

[jplong]

they have an annual gathering of twins. Sounds like a good time.
