Welcome to the City of New Franklin,
Summit County, Ohio- The area now known as the City of New Franklin, was founded as Franklin Township in 1817 and is located at the southern edge of Summit County, in Northeast Ohio. It is bounded to the north by Coventry Township, as well as the Cities of Barberton and Norton. Chippewa Township, in Wayne County, is to the west of New Franklin, with the Village of Clinton to the southwest. To the east, lies the City of Green. The 2000 U. S. Census count placed the city ’s population at 14,530. The City is approximately 26.6 square miles in area. Three major state highways, State Routes 93, 236, and 619, traverse New Franklin, with easy access to State Route 21. The City is only twenty minutes from Akron, Canton, and Massillon, and forty minutes from Cleveland. Because of its central location, New Franklin affords easy access to air transportation at both Akron-Canton Airport and Cleveland Hopkins International Airport. New Franklin has a diverse blend of citizens, who are separated into various districts. Residents have mailing addresses in Akron, Barberton, Canal Fulton, Clinton or Norton, and their children attend one of the City’s four school districts: Manchester, Coventry, Norton, or Northwest. As a result, New Franklin has developed into “A Community of Neighborhoods,” each with its own unique features. City of New Franklin, Summit County, Ohio (330) 882-4324 e-mail admin@newfranklin.org
