About Willoughby Hills, Ohio

Willoughby Hills sits 21 miles east of our Parma base, in the southwestern corner of Lake County along the Chagrin River — making it the first Lake County city in our regular service rotation. Established as a city in 1956, Willoughby Hills covers 10.82 square miles and has been one of Lake County's fastest-growing communities since 1970, with population doubling over that period. The 2024 ACS shows 9,975 residents with a median age of 40.4 (younger than the regional skew), median household income of $67,214, and median home value of $359,142 — by far the highest median home value of any city in Lake County (Source: 2024 ACS, Census Reporter; City of Willoughby Hills Economic Development). About 35.5% of adults hold bachelor's degrees or higher, with the city reporting that "almost half" of residents hold advanced degrees. The city borders Euclid and Richmond Heights to the west, Gates Mills, Highland Heights, and Mayfield Village to the south, Kirtland and Waite Hill to the east, and Wickliffe and Willoughby to the north. Largest ancestral groups are German, Slovene, Italian, Irish, Polish, and English — reflecting the city's mid-20th-century immigrant settlement patterns. Major landmarks include Squire's Castle in the Cleveland Metroparks North Chagrin Reservation (one of Northeast Ohio's most-photographed historic structures), Manakiki Golf Course, and the southern share of Cuyahoga County Airport. Housing stock skews newer than typical Cleveland eastern suburbs, with many homes built between 1970 and 2000 on larger lots than inner-ring neighborhoods.
