Blessed with a picturesque landscape, plentiful jobs, affordable homes and a low cost of living, Toledo is an excellent hometown. Recognizing the city’s booming solar and green industries and low rental and home prices, ZipRecruiter recently named Toledo one of the best up-and-coming towns for college graduates. It’s actually a great value for people of all ages and circumstances, with median home prices nearly half the price of the national median and a cost of living that is 23 percent lower than the national average. Toledo’s neighborhoods themselves are equally appealing, offering welcoming downtown districts, historic residential areas and peaceful suburbs.
