Renting a house in Solon, Ohio

Solon is a southeast Cuyahoga County suburb bordering Bainbridge Township in Geauga County to the east and Aurora in Portage County to the southeast, with ZIP code 44139 covering the city. Interstate 271 runs through Solon with interchanges near State Route 91 (SOM Center Road) and State Route 422 (Aurora Road), and the Aurora Road corridor includes a number of corporate office and light-industrial parks alongside the city's residential subdivisions. Housing stock is largely newer suburban construction — single-family colonials and ranches built from the 1960s onward on larger lots than the older housing stock found in Cleveland proper.

Getting around Solon

Solon sits along Interstate 271, with State Route 91 and State Route 422 (Aurora Road) providing the main east-west and north-south corridors through the city. South Chagrin Reservation, part of the Cleveland Metroparks system, borders Solon along its eastern edge, offering trails and river access along the Chagrin River. Greater Cleveland RTA's fixed bus routes are concentrated closer to the city and inner-ring suburbs, so most Solon residents rely on a car for daily transportation and for the commute toward downtown Cleveland.

Section 8 and voucher holders looking in Solon

Ohio has no statewide law requiring landlords to accept Housing Choice Vouchers, and Solon is not among the handful of Cuyahoga County communities — Cleveland Heights, South Euclid, University Heights, Warrensville Heights, and Linndale — that have adopted local source-of-income protection ordinances, so acceptance in Solon depends on the individual landlord. The Cuyahoga Metropolitan Housing Authority (CMHA) administers the countywide Housing Choice Voucher program and accepts preliminary applications year-round. Every home Rent Finder Cleveland manages accepts Section 8 and is HUD-inspection-ready, though our current homes are concentrated in Cleveland rather than Solon — see our Section 8 guide for how the program works locally.
