9 Reasons Why People From Cleveland Are The Best Kind Of People You’ll Ever Meet
Every city has its charm, but what makes Cleveland the best city in the world is its unforgettable people. We Clevelanders are a unique bunch, to be sure, but what makes us different is really our greatest strength. From our devotion to all things Cleveland to our culinary prowess, these nine things go to show that people from Cleveland are among the very best around.
In Cleveland, you don't have to conform to any norm to fit in. Heck, you don't even have to be Irish to take the day off work on St. Patrick's Day and join the thousands of people who gather downtown for the parade. You'd be hard-pressed to find a city as welcoming as Cleveland.
Cleveland is the birthplace of rock and roll, and just about everyone here would be proud to tell you that. From the iconic Rock and Roll Hall of Fame to our world-famous orchestra, Cleveland makes you want to break into song.
Thanks to great organizations like the Greater Cleveland Volunteers, the charity and social work opportunities in Clevelandare virtually endless. From tutoring inner-city youths after school to feeding the homeless, there's nothing we wouldn't do to help out our neighbors.
It takes a special kind of dedication to be a Cleveland sports fan. For every spirit-lifting Cavs win there is an equal and opposite Browns loss. But that won't keep us down for long, and Clevelanders will always rush to defend what's theirs, even outside the realm of sports. It's not called Believeland for nothing.
Spend a night on the town with a seasoned Clevelander and you'll soon see that few cities have a nightlife quite like Cleveland's. Whether you're dancing the night away at an exclusive club or winding your way down East 4th Street, you're guaranteed a great time with amazing people. Just try to keep up.
Philadelphia may call itself "The City of Brotherly Love," but they don't have anything on Cleveland. The sheer amount of friendly faces you'll see strolling downtown will make you feel welcome no matter where you come from.
Cleveland has some of the best food in the world, period. Whether you're craving authentic pasta dishes in Little Italy or chowing down on a gloriously messy Polish Boy, Clevelanders have the culinary chops to satisfy any appetite.
Cleveland isn't called the Forest City for nothing. Thousands of acres of public parks and natural reservations are scattered throughout the city, and there's nothing Clevelanders love more than enjoying the fruits of nature by keeping this land pristine for generations to come.
As the world continues to change, Cleveland and its people lead the way. Whether we're saving lives with breakthrough medical innovations at our internationally-recognized hospitals or simply showing random acts of kindness to our neighbors, Clevelanders are doing their part to build a brighter future for the world.
