Planning a move to Toledo — neighborhoods?

First post here. I'm a nurse at the local hospital and Poverty rate is 19.1%, which is higher than I expected. Average temperature is around 53°F, so expect cold winters. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. The suburbs are where most families end up. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem pretty good.

I've been here 9 years and it's exactly what I was looking for. The thing nobody mentions is nightlife. It's growing and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the community vibe is legit. And if you're into hiking, this place is better than expected.

Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Lakewood side vs the Old Town side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

No regrets on my end..
