CLEVELAND CLINIC CVICU

Hey guys,

So I am 25 years old, recently got an offer at the Cleveland Clinic, and I will be moving soon.

I am having a hard time where to live in Cleveland. I want to preferably live close by the clinic either walking distance or 10-15 min drive max. I want to be in a safe, fun city vibe neighborhood.

I've done a fair amount of research and I found out that Westlake, Lakewood, the Heights and Trents are pretty decent places to live. I just found them to be more rural. Any recommendations based on my preference for those who live in Cleveland?

I don't know anyone out there and I am super excited to move and start my new chapter at the Clinic. I want to meet new people, join a crossfit or a gym nearby. I like trying new restaurants, watching sports, going for a run and hanging out people. Where would this place be in Cleveland LOL?

Any recommendation would be helpful. For those who have worked at the Clinic, how was your experience? I will be starting in their j5-6 CVICU. What type of patients do they see? (They have a lot of sub units)...

Thanks in advance

I was born there but moved when I was 7 so can't help you but I was curious and found this site...my.cleveland...has some info about main road closures that you'll need to keep in mind...sorry, wouldn't SS.  Also check this link on Reddit

J5-6 is one of 5 CVICU's at the clinic. From what I remember they all take open hearts, with J6-6 being vascular ICU and J5-5 being the device ICU. Each ICU has 1-2 CT surgeon's assigned to it. 

Cleveland has a very underrated food scene. There are plenty of great restaurants to go to in Cleveland Heights, Tremont, Ohio City, Lakewood, downtown Cleveland. All of those places I listed are close to downtown and CCF, with Lakewood being the "furthest". When I say furthest I mean a few miles. None of those places are considered "rural". University Circle is also a hot area to live. There are also plenty of gyms, CrossFit gyms, yoga studios, etc to choose from.

If you want to know more just shoot me a message.
