Macedonia

Macedonia is a city in Summit County. The population was 11,188 at the 2010 census.

In the early 1800's a young man named Henry Woods came across a stream he named Indian Run. Some years later, a man named Abraham Cranmer from Northfield purchased 90 acres of property near Indian Run at the intersection of Jenkins and N. Bedford Roads. This is where he built his home in 1824, the first log house in this new settlement. Soon other people moved to this new settlement known as “The Corners.” A log school house was built in 1833, a frame church in 1835, and there was an Inn for weary travelers on the stage coach line from Pittsburgh to Cleveland.

The City of Macedonia is conveniently located amidst the crossroads of 4 major highways: I-480, I-271, I-80 & State Route 8. It’s positioned directly south of Cleveland & north of Akron & Canton. Just 25 minutes from either downtown Cleveland or Akron, Macedonia is a great place to stay for a business or family trip. There is an abundance of lodging and restaurants, plus it is within a short drive of several major attractions like:
