Kent

The landscape around Kent is a river-cut setting of gentle northeastern Ohio hills, which has shaped both the urban form and local economy. The Cuyahoga River runs through downtown, where former industrial sites and mill-era development recall the waterway’s role in the city’s growth. Kent State University, founded in 1910, gives the city a strong academic presence and brings galleries, performances and collegiate sport to its streets. Its campus is also the site of the May 4, 1970 shootings; the May 4 Visitors Center interprets this defining chapter in American history.
