Overview of Toledo

Toledo is one of the fastest-growing regions in Ohio - and for good reason. Although many areas in the Buckeye State have seen decline in recent years, Toledo has rebounded and invested in redevelopment - drawing many Ohio residents back to Toledo to rent apartments. Bordering the state of Michigan along the western end of Lake Erie and home to one of the many manufacturing hubs along the Rust Belt, Toledo has seen three major developments in the last fifteen years. These include a recently upgraded riverfront, the construction of the Huntington Center in 2009, and the implementation of the Fifth Third Field minor league baseball stadium in 2002. Needless to say, there are many opportunities to give Toledo apartments a second look.
