📲 I have so many people contacting me who are moving here to northeast ohio and I ABSOLUTELY love it! Honestly, if you are moving or relocating here to the Akron/Cleveland Ohio Area, we can make that transition so much easier on you!!
I’m a full time Realtor® in the Akron/Cleveland Area. I am also an Air Force Veteran, so anyone looking to use their VA benefits, let's get together.

I graduated from shaker. Shaker will always be near and dear to my heart. The taxes are still high but you get less for what we got 20, 30, 40 years ago. When i went, shaker was #2 in the country in education, a drop from #1. Shaker is not even on the map anymore. Solon took our spot for awhile.
Agreed. My mom moved me from Cle+ public to Shaker Woodbury and we stayed until graduation. I try to teach my kid using some of the styles I learned there, but I get hit with "that's not how my teacher told us to do it." SH made me really curious about learning and they went above and beyond when I was sick so I didn't fall behind.❤
I remember a woman tried to commit a crime, then was heading back down Chagrin to get back into Cleveland. She was stopped by 5 Shaker Heights police, right across from Walgreens
The original Stouffer’s restaurant was in Shaker Square. My father was a bartender there and later worked in refrigeration when they started the frozen foods company. My mother had an internship in the test kitchen and that’s where they met. There are lots of interesting historical facts about the community..
Thank you for the property tax link. I've been looking for one like this that wasn't just the "mills" rate which I will never understand... Seeing the percentages makes it easier to understand. Awesome video as always!
absolutely! and I agree lol
You might've mentioned the Chagrin/Lee shopping district. With the library, city hall, and courthouse, that's more my idea of a downtown.
I've been a resident most of my life. This is a very good intro to Shaker Heights.
I appreciate that Brandt!
Hi. I know this is a long shot but does anyone remember my parents, Donald Butter and his wife Jean, two kids, Calum and Sharon.
They moved to another city in about 1972. I'm Calum and was born in Shaker Heights.
Great video! Very well done! Shaker is a hidden gem! Beautiful suburb!!
couldn't agree more! Forgot to add that this is where Kid Cudi grew up lol are you from here?!
@@livinginnortheastohio8643 it’s my hometown!!!
@@casualtiez5141 Nice !!!
@@ryucartel351 good call Ryu!
Another excellent video! Shaker Jeights is a wonderful and scenic place to live, however, the taxes are brutal! Even though Cleveland Heights shares the same burden of high taxes, they also have more entertainment offerings (I've lived in both cities).
thanks Eric!!! I just posted a video on the high taxes. I was looking to move. to Cleveland Heights until I saw that 4% tax rate!! I do love the area though.
Hey Alex, nice video. We grew up in Shaker. Now we live and sell real estate in Vermont.
Hey very cool!! Hope all is well 😊
lol. Same here but now in Middlebury. Lived in South Euclid.
Grew up in South Euclid back in the day but loved driving through Shaker Heights. Such a beautiful area. Van Aken's an old school classic by the way and I used to work at Starbucks Coffee right by there on Warrensville Road and the RTA transit covering some shifts. Now I'm in Vermont ( long story ).
Brassica in the Van Aken Market Hall is awesome, but you always know that an area that has a Mitchell's Ice Cream is going to an area worth checking out. If you drive east on Chagrin toward Trader Joe's there is a cool Indian fast food place called Choolaah's.
😋😋 agreed... grab a pastry from On the Rise. Delicious.
Hi Alex....Shaker Heights, looks sweet! I wouldn't mind one of those apts. In one of those apt. buildings.
Some of them are really nice but the HOA fees are a little expensive.
We owned 3 properties by Shaker Square . Hungarian burro ,
now taken over by the hood .
Grew up in that nature center .
Man you really know your areas👍🏽
Thank you ✅
Great video
Thank you 😊
Shaker square isn't what it used to be. Stores have disappeared especially since covid.
I heard that they want to tear it down but its a historical to a lot of us. They've been trying to keep it going but every 10 years it looks even more bleak.
Good video
Thank you !
My family is debating moving to shaker vs cleveland heights in a few years. Can you do a pros and cons video for cleveland heights?
Yeah of course. Not sure when it will get done but in the next few weeks 😊
Shaker has better schools and is ALOT better to live
Stay away feom both. Its nkt what it used to be.
Hey! What about weather in general? Not only in Shaker Heights but the surrounding areas and Akron. Do they have tornadoes? Flooding? Thank you!
Generally, east side of Cleveland does get more snow than the west side but storms here are scattered a lot of times.
Winter is from November-February
Spring is from March-May
Summer is from June-august
Fall is the best time of year here, no questions about that, September-October
It’s humid here, but rarely gets super hot, above 90’s. Tornados do happen but are not common and flooding depends on the areas you’re in. If you’re in the “country” a bit more it can happen.
They dont get floods or tornadoes. It's mkre on lower land or the old part of cleveland, metro parks and places where drainage systems havent been updated.
@@livinginnortheastohio8643 not true. When it snows, shaker, Mayfield and those suburbs get hit the worse. I live off the lake now. We get hit sometimes but a lot of times it skips over us and hit this part. You want to talk to the locals, especially the old heads, when looking into a neighborhood. Thats from me being here on earth 42 yeara.
moving to Shaker Heights in July but just found your video today he he he.
no kidding! where you moving from?
@@livinginnortheastohio8643 California. lol lol lol. OMG, I looked at the crime report on your video and that is where I am going to be living closer too....idk. I am kinda worried. any suggestions on how to stay safe? How is the transportation in that area? Thanks.
@@valcheung5747 No worries, Shaker has a very good police force.
I think about “Jeopardy!” for Shaker Heights.
Really helpful! Is Moreland Courts apartments considered Shaker Heights? Neighborhood?
I believe thats a condo development, not an apartment complex. 13415 Shaker Blvd, Cleveland, OH 44120, found just outside the Boulevard district. Average price is around $120,000 but the HOA fees is what gets you, its around $800 a month!
Yes there’s actually both, the new condo complex on Shaker Blvd and also the older apartments called Moreland Court Apartments on North Moreland Blvd. This was my very first bachelor apartment in my 20’s, very nice historical garden style apartments with a lot of character.
@@cantkeepmedown100 what is the newer condo part called?
@@mrpeel3239 Moreland Court Condominiums (a high rise) whereas the apartments are 2 floors
@@cantkeepmedown100 I can really relate to the joys of bachelorhood in that kind of complex. I lived in my 20s in one just like it in Greenwich.
Among other claims to fame:. Shaker Heights is mentioned in the Opera "Trouble in Tahiti" by Leonard Bernstein.

So... Have you been to the Walgreens at Van Amen? They have lollipops!
I live in shaker
I live here to
nice!
Con....the snow, the wind, the bitter temps!
Pros....heat in summer, humidity. 😁
Enjoy!
The metro parks give Ski lesson to anyone wanting to learn during the winter.
I love Mitchell's Ice Cream in Van Aken Market
Thats where i stay at
Nice! how long have you stayed out there?!
What are the tax rates in this city? Are they less than 1%?
Hellllllnawwww lol
The property tax 1% for residential in my Arizona county.
Everything below Scottsdale ave is not shaker heights.
Correct! That’s Cleveland, Lee-miles neighborhood
i live here
Nice! Do you like Shaker?
Hey I live here
Nice!
This is beyond shallow, shaker is a much deeped experience than this guy disclosed, the quality of shaker life, the lakes, the recreation, he clearly nhas little knowlege beyond the very thin once over. I have been in shaker for over 60 years and he did not touch on much of it. If someone is interested in shaker it is far better to speak with long time residents and get the pros and cons
Dont forget to mention the way crime has taken off from the 1960s to now! 😁
Were you expecting a Ken Burns documentary?? 🤣🤣
Don’t. The whole things a con
Diversity is a negative aspect !!!
bro how
While Shaker Heights is super diverse, it’s sad that systemic racism makes it less so.
That’s a lie.
@@livinginnortheastohio8643 No, it’s not facts. JFC you are a weak smarmy tool.
LOL
