West Park
West Park is what Cleveland looks like when it stops trying to impress you. Bungalows, postwar Capes, Kamm's Corners holding the line as a walkable anchor while the rest of the neighborhood stretches west toward the airport in cheerful suburban indifference. The dating math is straightforward: you are meeting someone who owns a snowblower, has opinions about Lorain Avenue traffic, and considers a drive downtown a minor expedition. First dates happen at Kamm's, second dates at someone's actual house. The upside is stability, decent square footage, and zero pretense. The tradeoff is that spontaneity lives somewhere else, probably Ohio City.
