If you're looking for wide open spaces not far from a metropolitan hub, Twinsburg's 1,900 acres of parkland (that's more than a fifth of the city) should satisfy. Although it has commuters to Akron and Cleveland, huge in-town employers like Daimler-Chrysler, GE Energy, and Pepsi-Cola almost double the town's daytime population to 35,000, according to a city planning director. And a fun fact: The Twins Days Festival brings 2,000 sets of identical and fraternal twins and 30,000 onlookers to town every year for a talent show, field games, and a "Double Take" parade. -J.L.
