Mentor - Great Place to Raise a Family
-
3/4/2006
This city is a safe place to raise a family. The schools are "top notch", the neighborhoods are friendly and home prices are reasonable. My husband and I have lived in Mentor since 1970 and have seen many changes such as businesses and property development over the years. Most improvements were needed to provide activities for the growing community. There are still surrounding areas that have not yet been developed which gives it a somewhat rural atmosphere, but still having all the conveniences of a large city. We also have beautiful Lake Erie beach only a 10 minute drive away. The only drawback to living in this area is the weather. Although we are safe from hurricanes, the winters are quite long. However, when Spring finally arrives, the wait is well worth it.
