Known as the "Rubber Capital of the World” and the birthplace of LeBron James, and with its sports and education offerings, there are plenty of reasons Akron, Ohio is a great place to call home.
Akron is a hub for a few different professional industries, including health care, manufacturing, and trucking. Firestone used to have a substantial manufacturing plant in town, lending to Akron's long-held nickname, the "Rubber Capital of the World." While rubber manufacturing is no longer the primary industry in Akron, the city is now known for polymer research, thanks to the presence of the University of Akron.
Because of the school, this northeastern Ohio city is a thriving college town. U of A is known for its excellent nursing and engineering programs, law school, and fantastic School of Communication, whose student-run TV station has won multiple Emmy awards. Thanks to popular museums like the Akron Children's Museum and the Akron Art Museum, arts and culture are also prominent in this city.
If you're a basketball fan, you'll know that Akron, Ohio, is the birthplace of the king himself, LeBron James. You'll also discover a city road named after him when he led the Cleveland Cavaliers to a national championship in 2016. If watching sports is your thing, you'll be happy to know that Akron also has a AA baseball team affiliated with the Cleveland Guardians (formerly the Indians) known as the Akron Rubber Ducks. In addition, the University of Akron has an NCAA Division I football team, men's and women's basketball teams, and many more. Root on the Zips in addition to Cleveland teams.
