About Canton, OH

Canton () is a city in Stark County, Ohio, United States, and its county seat. It is the eighth-most populous city in Ohio, with a population of 70,872 at the 2020 census. The Canton–Massillon metropolitan area has an estimated 400,000 residents. Canton is located approximately 60 miles (97 km) south of Cleveland and 20 miles (32 km) south of Akron in Northeast Ohio, on the edge of Ohio's Amish Country. Founded in 1805 alongside Nimishillen Creek, Canton became a center of heavy industry because of its numerous railroad lines. As shifts in the manufacturing industry led to the relocation or downsizing of many factories and workers during the late 20th century, the city's industry diversified into the service economy, including retailing, education, finance and healthcare. Canton is best known as the home of the Pro Football Hall of Fame and the birthplace of the National Football League. 25th U.S. president William McKinley conducted his famous front porch campaign from his home in Canton, winning the presidency in the 1896 election. The McKinley National Memorial and William McKinley Presidential Library and Museum commemorate his life and presidency. Canton was also selected as the site of the First Ladies National Historic Site largely in honor of his wife, Ida Saxton McKinley.
