    "Porchrockr is amazing. Happens once a year in August. Highland square is a great area but West Akron is broad area and many of these questions do not apply to the whole area. Highland Square USA unique area and the bars have many events. "

    "As transplants from the East Coast, we were trying to decide between Lakewood, Cleveland Heights, and Highland Square. We're so happy we landed here in Highland Square because it's got everything we want without the stuff we don't want. Food, walkability, safety, schools, neighborhood events, etc. So we bought a house --- we're staying! The vibe is everything."
