From what I've heard the negatives are a lack of night life and the conservative population but my roommate and I vastly prefer calm days in so those seem like non issues. We're the kind of people to keep to ourselves and be very selective with who we let into our lives so the racist neighbors shouldn't be too bad to deal with.
We found this really nice quiet place, 2 bath 2 bedroom for 1k/month. A crap ton of stores, including several grocery stores, and fast food all within 5 minutes of walking. We're also very close to that giant hub that has Sam's Club, Costco, and Walmart right next to each other so I'm wondering how the public bus system is? We both don't drive so convenience was our top priority when selecting North Canton. Also which Cinemark is the better one to go to?
Pretty excited overall, it's looking like the perfect place to take it easy for a while and just relax.
What are good neighboring towns for Airbnb I have heard Canton is not an especially safe budget I don't have one the safer the better.
My adult family likes to go out on Weds but other than just going out to eat we are running out of things to do. One person is mildly handicapped so nothing that has a ton of walking (something like a museum is fine, but hiking is out). Any suggestions?

Gerrymandering makes some votes count more than others. Those in charge of drawing voter maps (in Ohio, it’s currently politicians) can use this unfair process to create odd-shaped districts that concentrate opposition voters into a few areas, allowing the map-drawing party to win more districts—and hold on to power.
This year Ohio voters have the opportunity to end gerrymandering by voting yes on Issue 1 on or before November 5.
The bipartisan-backed measure would ban politicians from manipulating voting districts, instead empowering citizens to draw fair maps through an open and transparent process, restoring power to the people.
Be aware: many reports indicate the ballot language around Issue 1 is deliberately misleading. Research the issue for yourself using non-partisan election information organizations.
Anyone know whats going on with all these post talking about a guy dressed as a woman trying to abduct children. Every post has the same wording and pictures of someone who looks like a character from the movie “white chicks”.
I seen that they arrested someone in connection to an attempted abduction in alliance but it says nothing about the description of the person. Something seems off about all the post I keep seeing and I’m trying to figure out whats actually going on.
Looking for recommendations in the Akron Canton area for contractors to do a 3 season room or a screened in deck.
I’m not sure what would work best, so I’d like help with design, not just construction.
Also appreciate any you would avoid or had bad experience with.
Thanks!
(I apologize ahead of time because im sure its been brought up, i havent seen anything yet.)
Does anyone know the origins of this fox all over the city? Possibly who made it or is it a club? Maybe its a drug thing?? (Tired, low energy... use fox.) Subliminal messaging... Lastly maybe my opinion is its just a meme to screw with a bunch of people because they dont understand. 🙃🫠🙂
Any info will quench my thirst for understanding!! Hehe cute fox! 😍
I clearly remember being in grade school & taking a field trip to some large old institution. As we walked the grounds, I remember seeing little outdoor open air cubicles made of brick. I want to say that maybe we were at a psych hospital but that seems really strange to take grade schoolers to a psych hospital for a field trip. Does this ring a bell to anyone out there?
Was trying to find a good street taco one but had no luck! Looking for those and other various food options!!
Considering DoorDash as a temp full time/part time in between starting my own tech business. How is Canton/North Canton for this? Estimates on the web are all over the place.
Anyone here know the timeline for Taggarts to reopen after the crash or is it still up in the air?
Anybody know of a decent lawn care company in the area who will come out four or five times a year for weed control and fertilization only, for less than $100 per visit?
Hi neighbors. I'm looking for information to compare the two candidates that are running for Stark County Sheriff, Maier vs Weisburn. Anyone know of any resources with information on either candidate or even your own opinions are good too. I want to make an informed decision that is more than "that dude has the most signs".
I grew up in Canton but just moved back in the past year or so. I work remote and haven’t made any new friends since. Hoping to find a group of guys to hang with to watch the games with. Wife and I are 30 but doesn’t really matter! We live in plain and maybe we could hang at winking or somewhere in Oakwood!
I was at dogwood park earlier and I heard church bells chime the hour at 1:53. Any idea where it was coming from?
Tomorrow Saturday 15 at 12pm will be the big opening of Miniso!! They will giving 20% off to the first 50 customers and I was before in other city in one and they was giving a bag with a few items too!! A lot of cute things! They are in the Belden Village Mall!
Out of curiosity, how many people have actually been to the Hall of Fame outside of like a school trip in Gradeschool / Highschool.
Seems like it’s a big part of our community from how the local media portrays it, but I tend to not really trust organized media outlets/news stations when it comes to what the actual community feels.
So I’m coming to Reddit to ask the question 😂
Also, if you haven’t been to it lately, what’s something you think the HOF could do that would actually make locals give a sh&$?
Hey! Anyone know of any tattoo studios doing flash sales for Friday the 13th? (September 2024)

(the best picture i could take sorry)
The people who lived in this tiny-ass apartment before me abandoned this cat, and we're not allowed pets. It walked in, and I had to take it out or get evicted. My aunt brought some catfood to lay out on the porch, but that's not allowed either! I feel so bad for it, it really wants to come in. Is there anyone who can take care of this cat? My friend is asking his co-workers as well.
I don't know what her name was originally, but before I was told i couldnt even have an outdoor cat, I named her Cinder. I live by Ferndale. I would greatly appreciate it if someone gave her the love she deserves. She is very skittish though.
Good morning friends. We recently moved down from the Akron area and our old barbershops are just a bit too far to drive to on the weekend. Can anyone recommend me some legit barbershops in the area? We live in plain Township, but I don’t mind driving down into the Canton area if it’s a good spot. Any help would be very much appreciated and my hair also thank you!
Hi everyone!
Where’s the best place to get handmade items? I’m visiting from Canada - and I’m looking for locally made items to bring back home.
Thank you!
