First, you'll need wheels. Renting a car is a necessity considering Youngstown's spread-out nature. Going for a mid-size to full-size car or SUV would make perfect sense due to its spacious interiors and higher ground clearance. Remember, unlike the UK, American cars are left-hand drive, and you drive on the right side of the road.
Get your car warmed up and prepare for a good time. Start with The Butler Institute of American Art which boasts an impressive collection. Remember to use your map as navigating the broad streets in American cities can be a bit tricky for a first timer.
Love the sand between your toes? Take a drive down to Lake Milton State Park. The freshwater lake has sandy beaches that are open during the summer from dawn till dusk.
You're just a short drive from the outdoor adventure! Mill Creek Park offers miles of scenic trails, gardens, and even a golf course. Don't forget to pack your hiking boots!
The city runs on Eastern Standard Time (EST) which is five hours behind Greenwich Mean Time(GMT) – so don't forget to amend your watches. The currency is the US Dollar($).
Unlike in the UK, in America, you drive on the right side of the road and the speed limits vary from 20 mph in school zones, 25-35 mph in residential areas, to 55-70 mph on highways.
Youngstown also offers a fair amount of parking spaces. However, do check for signs indicating time limit parking restrictions and private lots.
Weather in Youngstown changes with each season! Summers are generally warm but can get quite humid. In contrast, winters can get downright frosty with temperatures dropping in December, January, and February. Always check the forecast before setting off anywhere and ensure your car rental is equipped with suitable features.
Seasonal events include the Canfield Fair on Labor Day weekend in September and the Summer Festival of the Arts in July. Mark your calendars!
To sum up, as long as you remember to drive on the right side of the road, it shouldn't be too big of a shift from driving in the UK. So why wait? Pack your bags, book your flights and rent a car to experience Youngstown, Ohio, in all its glory.
