About Youngstown, OH.

Home to around 60,000 people, Youngstown is a mid-sized city in Northeast Ohio. Youngstown is the largest city in Mahoning County and also serves as its county seat.

That being said, Youngstown has seen a major period of urban renewal since around 2010, which has brought new jobs and new industries to the city. Youngstown has quickly transitioned into a hub for the arts and culture.
