Unlike the standard American Community Survey 1-year estimates, which provide data for communities with a population of 65,000 and up, this release features data for communities with a population of 20,000 and greater. The number of tables published as part of the supplemental estimates is more limited, though.

Tables available in the supplemental estimates include population by age, population by race, means of transportation to work, median rent (mapped above), and more.

For a complete list of the available data by community, please visit our new American Community Survey 1-Year Supplemental Estimates page. For data on all Cuyahoga County Communities, please see our 5-Year ACS Estimates page. 2013-2017 5-year estimates are scheduled to be released in December 2018.

The U.S. Census Bureau recently released its annual population estimates for cities, villages, and townships. This was in addition the the county and metropolitan area population estimates issued in March. Between July 2016 and July 2017, Cuyahoga County’s population declined by an estimated 4,940 people, a 0.4% decrease. Between 2010 and 2017, the population decrease was an estimated 31,595 people, or 2.5% of the population. Surrounding counties continued to grow, with Lorain and Medina counties seeing the largest population increases. The five-county Cleveland-Elyria Metropolitan Statistical Area also saw a population decline, shrinking by an estimated 0.9% between 2010 and 2017.

The population figures at the community level show similar trends. Between 2010 and 2017, most of the region’s fastest-growing communities were outside of Cuyahoga County. Six cities and villages in Cuyahoga County saw population growth between 2010 and 2017, and the largest increase was in Pepper Pike (279 people, a 4.7% gain).

The cities that experienced the largest population declines were concentrated in Cuyahoga County.

Population figures?for every community in Cuyahoga County and for Greater Cleveland counties are?available on our Population Estimates page.

State Capital Improvement Program

The Ohio Public Works Commission (OPWC) provides funding for capital improvement projects through the State Capital Improvement Program, Local Transportation Improvement Program, and the Revolving Loan Program. The District One (Cuyahoga County) Public Works Integrating Committee (DOPWIC) staff reviewed and scored 52 project applications.

After completing the evaluations, the DOPWIC staff recommended projects that totaled approximately $29 million, the amount of allocated funds available. They also identified contingency projects that could be funded should more funds become available during the Program Year. The DOPWIC met on January 11, 2018 to review the Preliminary Project Rankings and Appeals. At the meeting, the DOPWIC selected 15 projects as primary recommendations and an additional three contingency projects.

Small Government Program

The Ohio Public Works Commission Small Government Program provides grants and loans to villages and townships with populations of less than 5,000. The DOPWIC Small Government Subcommittee met on February 5, 2018 to review the Small Government Project Ranking. They voted to approve five projects as primary recommendations and an additional two projects as contingency projects for statewide consideration by the OPWC Small Government Commission.

Clean Ohio

The Clean Ohio Green Space Conservation Program is dedicated to environmental conservation. This includes acquisition of green space and the protection and enhancement of river and stream corridors. The District One Natural Resources Assistance Council (NRAC) selects open space and riparian corridor projects that are visible, accessible, and instructional to receive funds from the Clean Ohio Program.

Five organizations applied for funding this year, with approximately $3.3 million available. The NRAC met on January 12, 2018 to review the preliminary rankings, and recommended four projects for Clean Ohio Conservation funds.

The study began with a detailed inventory of approximately 180 supermarkets in and around Cuyahoga County. County Planning staff was then able to identify low-income census blocks that are more than a half-mile from their nearest supermarket. Those census blocks also contained a wealth of socio-economic and health outcome indicators which, altogether, provide a detailed picture of food deserts in Cuyahoga County.

County Planning developed an interactive map of food deserts, together with static maps for 28 focus areas throughout the County. They are?also available on the Board of Health’s website.

An earlier phase of this year＊s CHC work produced detailed community profiles for each of the County＊s 59 communities and each of the City of Cleveland＊s 34 Statistical Planning Areas.

County Planning staff presented their findings as part of a Listening Session to interested stakeholders this past October, as well as at the Northeast Ohio GIS Symposium this past August.

In 2018, County Planning will continue to partner with the Board of Health on supermarket access. County Planning is developing methods that will allow for quarterly updates to the supermarket landscape, including store opening and closure scenarios, as needed.
