Apartments for Rent in Youngstown, OH(469 Rentals)

A richness of coal in the early 19th century lead Youngstown to prosperity, and the city was deemed a worthy stop on the Erie Canal. Industrial jobs, particularly steel, became prevalent in the early 1900s, and by the 1950s Youngstown enjoyed a fairly diverse body of residents and culture. Despite a degree of economic downturn in the 1970s, the city has recently rebounded, seeing redevelopment and the construction of new upscale housing initiated in 2005. Additional construction of condos, retail and eateries began in 2006, and today much of the downtown scene is reaping the benefits of these upgrades.
