Disappearing cities and villages of the Buckeye State: Garfield Heights, Ohio


It all started here.

The 71-page report titled "Housing Market Recovery in Cuyahoga County: Race and Geography Still Matter," outlines improvements, with dropping foreclosures and more tax delinquent property owners now on payment plans, while profiling recovery difficulties in Cleveland's east side neighborhoods, and inner ring suburbs, like Garfield Heights, Maple Heights and East Cleveland.

Garfield Heights' population peaked at 41,417 in 1970.  Its 2017 estimated population is 27,835 -- a drop of 13,582 (33%).



Incorporated as the Village of South Newburgh in 1903 and the City of Garfield Heights in 1939, Garfield Heights is a southern inner-ring suburb.
