Since I have grown up here in Willoughby and still currently live here, I say that Willoughby is such a lovely town! The homes in Willoughby are very nice and taken care of. The school districts has improved in the last couple of month since the levy has passed. My siblings go to this school district and they always come home with a smile on their faces. Willoughby always felt like home and it always comforting with the excellency of our police officers, who does a great job at their jobs!
Willoughby is a great city with a lot of parks around and even has a nice plaza in Downtown Willoughby. Right behind the plaza, there is a ton of baseball fields at Todd field. There is a lot of great things but there seems to be a bit of trash around the area so that is why I gave it one less star because with all of our parks and being by Lake Erie, we need to keep the area and environment clean for all the wild life and even for the ecosystem.
I've lived in Willoughby my whole life and I can safely say this city is the perfect place to raise a family. Our public school system is amazing, it is very safe most of the time, and it is rather affordable to live here. The nightlife in Willoughby is relatively relaxing, so if you're looking for a fast-paced night out, downtown Cleveland is only about 20 minutes away. However, if you're looking for diversity, it isn't very much. A good chunk of the residents are white and older.
