Since 2020, two major cities in Mahoning and Trumbull counties have seen a drop in vacant housing, according to a report recently released by The Raymond John Wean Foundation.

The City of Youngstown is beginning to see the benefits of the new Welcome Home Ohio program. The program includes funding for the construction and rehabilitation of residential properties, and the Mahoning County Land Bank and Youngstown Neighborhood Development Corporation (YNDC) are taking full advantage of it.

The Ohio Department of Development on Wednesday announced it has awarded $6.8 million in grants to home and neighborhood improvement organizations across the state, including two in the Mahoning Valley.

The Community Foundation of the Mahoning Valley and its supporting foundations have awarded $640,000 in grants to 53 nonprofit organizations through its first grant cycle of 2025.
