Wondering whether you should move to Euclid? It depends on what you're optimizing for, but the city has real arguments in its favor: your dollar carries more weight here and safer than the typical us city. The data behind each is below.
Euclid sits at 89 on the composite cost-of-living index — about 11% under the national average. Not the cheapest place in the country, but enough of a discount to notice on rent and groceries every month. Median rent in town runs about $931/mo against a typical household income of $45,018, which is the kind of ratio that leaves room to save.
Euclid reports about 2,199 crime incidents per 100,000 residents — a step below the US average of around 3,500. The citywide number averages over neighborhoods that can vary a lot, but the headline number is friendlier than most American cities of comparable size.
Reasons are pulled from Euclid's actual data — Census ACS, BLS, BEA, NOAA, EPA AQS, FBI, and Walk Score. We don't list positives that aren't supported by the numbers, which is why different cities show different sections.
Yes — and a lot of it. With winter averages near 25°F, Euclid sees real accumulation most years. Salt for the steps, tires that handle ice, and a sense of humor about February are the usual costs of admission.
Cold enough to plan around. Winter in Euclid averages roughly 25°F, with stretches where daytime highs don't break freezing for weeks. Decent insulation, a real coat, and a car that starts in cold weather are non-negotiable.
Hot, but not desert-hot. Summer in Euclid runs about 82°F on average, with afternoons in the 90s and humidity that varies by region. AC is standard rather than optional.
Euclid falls in roughly USDA Zone 7. The zone classification is based on average annual minimum temperatures, so it's the right lookup for whether perennials and trees will overwinter here. Note that this is approximate from our winter-temperature data — check the USDA map for the exact zone before betting an expensive plant on it.
Euclid is at about 640 feet (195 m) above sea level. High enough to be solidly above any coastal concern, low enough that altitude isn't a factor.
Average for an American city. Euclid's reported crime rate of about 2,199 per 100,000 residents sits roughly in line with the US baseline of ~3,500. Like anywhere else, the citywide number masks real differences between neighborhoods — worth looking at specific areas before deciding.
No — your dollar actually goes further here. Euclid's composite cost-of-living index is 89, roughly 11% under the US average. Housing is usually the biggest driver of the discount.
Mostly car-dependent. Euclid's Walk Score of 41/100 means a handful of errands work on foot — depending on the neighborhood — but most residents still need a car for the rest. Transit Score is 37 out of 100.
Roughly $62,489 a year would match the lifestyle of someone earning $70,000 in an average US city. That's a starting point, not a target — negotiate higher when you can. Median rent in Euclid runs about $931/mo — keeping housing under 30% of gross income points to a similar floor on what you'd want to earn.
