Lyndhurst OH

XI CIVIL AND MUNICIPAL VOLUME 4, ISSUE 7 Cleveland, named the land east of the Cuyahoga River for his favorite Greek mathematician and logician, Euclid. The area remained populated mostly by Amerindians until after the War of 1812. Fourteen years after that war, Euclid was further divided into nine districts, with present-day Lyndhurst forming District IV. Ohio has always been known as an agricultural state. It’s full of farming communities, and early Lyndhurst was no exception. According to the United States Census Bureau, Lyndhurst Village became known simply as “Lyndhurst,” and it was incorporated formally as a village in 1917 and a city in 1951. Also according to the census bureau, the city has a total area of 4.44 square miles, of which 4.43 square miles is land and 0.01 square miles is water. The median income for a household in the city is estimated at $52,272, and the median income for a family is similarly reckoned at $64,961. The per capita income for the city is $28,206. About 1.3 percent of families and 2.5 percent of the population are below the poverty line, including 1.4 percent of those under age 18 and 3.3 percent of those age 65 years of age or older, as Ward noted.
