The campus, located north of downtown Youngstown, is compact and carefully designed, with most of the major structures being new or recently renovated. The Physical Plant is valued at approximately $320 million.
The city of Youngstown is located between Cleveland and Pittsburgh. The Youngstown-Warren area has a population in excess of 500,000 and offers the usual amenities of urban living but few of the problems of the big city. All types of housing are available within a 30-minute drive of the campus, and housing coasts in the Youngstown area are significantly lower than in most metropolitan areas.
