Cleveland Heights has a lot of natural beauty, but requires diligent maintenance. Otherwise, leaves back up storm drains, and tree branches block out street lights and sidewalks.
Blight and vandalism, while not extensive throughout the neighborhood, appear in pockets around the commercial areas. The residential areas are generally well-maintained.
