Broadview Heights

Broadview Heights is a city in Cuyahoga County, Ohio, United States. The population was 19,400 at the 2010 census. Indians occupied the territory that Broadview Heights rests on today until 1811, when the first white man, Seth Paine, settled on the territory.  Information about North Royalton can be found here. 



Native Americans once occupied the land that is now part of Broadview Heights. In 1811, Seth Paine, a surveyor sent by Colonel John Breck, became the first white man to settle the area. At the time, land now part of Brecksville, Broadview Heights, and North Royalton was known as Brecksville Township. A school was established in 1815 in a since-demolished building located at the intersection of Broadview Road and Avery Road. Akron, OH can be seen here.
