Residents
Resources for Living in RavennaRavenna is just the right size community for people who want to enjoy the best of what both cities and small towns have to offer. The city of Ravenna offers residents plenty of places to go, activities to enjoy, and services that maintain a good quality of life – all without the congestion and hectic pace common in larger cities.
Residents have many living options to choose from: Close-knit neighborhoods that are close to downtown, shopping, churches, restaurants and other destinations. Our historic district encompasses both residents and businesses whose facilities uphold and showcase the treasures of our past. They can choose from new developments in more spacious, rustic settings.

In addition to borrowing media, the library offers patrons many services: Sensory playtime for infants-age 6, summer programs, walking tours, knitting club, blood drives, arts and crafts, free movie screenings, learning about technology like photo editing and so much more.
