My husband and I live in a small town in Ohio and there are absolutely no jobs. We're thinking about moving possibly to Cleveland. We were previously looking in Columbus for apartments but it's too expensive for us to live there at the moment. There are jobs my husband is qualified for in this Cleveland newspaper we picked up.
For those who live or have lived in Cleveland, how are the jobs and what is the average pay? How about the safety of this city? Personally, I've never been.

Well, if you have a qualifications then its really easy to get a job in Cleveland. The average rent in the suburbs is $500-$650 for an apartment and $700-$1000 to rent a house. I know that you can find places as cheap as $350 in certain parts of Cleveland, and the area isn't "bad". I don't really know the average pay, it really depends on what type of job you're looking for.
As far as safety, believe it or not its pretty safe. People are so quick to jump up and say certain areas aren't safe, but that makes me wonder if they have ever been in that area? I think you and your husband should try to come up here, if you can afford it for 2-3 days, or just make a day trip. Come and see the city, check out the suburbs, if you see a For Rent sign inquire about it. But don't move up here unless your husband has secured a job, once you know where he'll be working it will make it easier to figure out where you'll be living. Good luck.

You better make sure you have a job for sure before moving anywhere....My Husband And I just moved from Ohio because there is no jobs ...There is ALOT of Companys closing up ...My husand was unemployed for 5 months when we was there and applied to over 400 jobs ....(That my husband was qualified to do) He applied as far south as Northern KY all the way to Columbus so I`m sure Cleveland is no better

i hated working downtown for 1 reason. the parking is ridiculous! it cost at least $40.00 a week to be somewhat close to your building.
