What it’s like
The place. Brookfield Center is a small community where nearly all homes are lived in by their owners, a much higher share than is usual across the country. Poverty is low, and few adults hold a four-year degree. Winters are cold and very snowy, with January the coldest month, while July brings warm summer days and the year is fairly wet.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with shops, manufacturing and the building trades also common. Across Trumbull County, some of the largest workplaces are Ultium Cells in Lordstown, Warren City Schools and Trumbull Memorial Hospital. Jobs across the county shrank a little last year, and unemployment there is somewhat lower than it was a year ago.
Things to do. A short drive away, Stambaugh Auditorium is a theatre and Shenango River Lake is a reservoir for time on the water. Sharon Speedway, also a short drive off, is a race track. For a longer outing, Mill Creek Park is a protected area of woods and trails, and the Butler Institute of American Art is a museum.
