County seat with waterfalls in town
Elyria is the seat of Lorain County and keeps one of the region's best surprises: Cascade and Elywood Parks, where the Black River drops over real waterfalls minutes from the courthouse square.
Lorain County Community College anchors the city's south side, and the road network of Route 57, I-90, and the Ohio Turnpike makes Elyria one of the best-connected addresses in the county.
