You'll find plenty of wide open spaces in rural Brunswick, where land is abundant and real estate inexpensive. A sum of $300,000 will buy you a newly constructed, spacious three-bedroom house; for half that price, you'll find a smaller 1950s-style ranch house.
In addition to its proximity to Lake Erie--about a half-hour drive away--the town has its own little lake, Lake Brunswick, which houses a nature preserve. Several public parks also feature lakes for fishing and boating.
