Renting a house in Strongsville, Ohio

Strongsville is a southwest Cuyahoga County suburb bordered by North Royalton to the east and Brunswick, in Medina County, to the south, with ZIP code 44136 covering most of the city. Interstate 71 runs through Strongsville with a major interchange at State Route 82, and the housing stock here leans toward newer suburban construction — single-family ranch and colonial homes built mostly from the 1960s through the 1990s on larger lots than the century-old housing common closer to Cleveland proper.

Getting around Strongsville

Strongsville sits along Interstate 71 at the State Route 82 interchange, giving direct highway access north toward downtown Cleveland and south toward Medina County. SouthPark Mall and the surrounding retail corridor along State Route 42 (Pearl Road) form the city's main commercial district, and Mill Stream Run Reservation, part of the Cleveland Metroparks system, runs along the eastern edge of the city.

Section 8 and voucher holders looking in Strongsville

Ohio has no statewide law requiring landlords to accept Housing Choice Vouchers, and Strongsville 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 Strongsville 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 Strongsville — see our Section 8 guide for how the program works locally.
