Youngstown is a midwestern city located on the Glaciated Allegheny Plateau. It was named for pioneer John Young, who settled the city in 1797 and established its first sawmill and gristmill along the Mahoning River. It was an early industrial city of the late 19th and early 20th centuries and became known as a center of steel production. With the movement of steelmaking jobs offshore as the industry contracted in the 1970s, the city became exemplary of the Rust Belt. The population of Youngstown has declined nearly 65 percent since 1960.

Downtown Youngstown has seen various revitalization efforts in the 21st century, including the Covelli Centre and Youngstown Foundation Amphitheatre. Other notable institutions in the city include the Butler Institute of American Art, Mill Creek Park, Stambaugh Auditorium, and Youngstown State University. Youngstown's first new downtown hotel since 1974—the DoubleTree by Hilton—opened in 2018 in the historic Stambaugh Building, adapted for this use.
