Lyndhurst, city in Cuyahoga County, Ohio, United States
Lyndhurst is a city in Cuyahoga County, Ohio, sitting just east of Cleveland and made up mostly of residential neighborhoods with single-family homes. Streets are lined with trees, and several parks and green spaces are spread across the area.
Lyndhurst grew in the early 20th century as families moved out of Cleveland looking for a quieter place to live nearby. By mid-century, the city had taken on the shape it still has today, with rows of homes filling out the residential grid.
The name Lyndhurst comes from an English place name, brought over by early settlers who shaped the character of the area. Today, neighbors gather at local parks and community events that give the streets a friendly, familiar tone.
A car is the most practical way to get around, as most of the city is residential and not easy to cover on foot. Cleveland is only a short drive away and offers a wider range of restaurants, shops, and things to see.
Lyndhurst sits right on the border between Cuyahoga and Lake counties, meaning some neighborhoods literally end at the county line. This position makes it one of the few cities in the area that straddles two different county jurisdictions.
