Small Town Charm Next to a Big City 4.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 14, 2018) Westlake, Ohio is a great place to live. It has all of the small-town charm of the best suburbs while still being located close to Cleveland. Living here means that I'm never far away from big-city amenities, but still get to enjoy a tight community and quaint surroundings.
