About the Area - Toledo, Ohio
The Glass City
The University of Toledo and the city of Toledo have a lot in common. Grit and determination. An innovative and engaged community. Add a dollop of Midwestern friendliness.
Toledo is located in northwest Ohio near the shores of western Lake Erie. More than 600,000 people live, work and play in the Toledo metropolitan area.
The city has long been known for its auto manufacturing and glass industry. But it has a growing reputation as a great place to start a career and make a home.
Toledo is home to the famous Mud Hens baseball team, Jeep headquarters and the world-renowned Toledo Museum of Art. Enjoy family-owned restaurants that have been around for decades and recently-opened farm-to-table restaurants and microbreweries.
The headquarters of several Fortune 500 companies are located here. These and other national companies often partner with UToledo, offering students and faculty opportunities for research collaboration, internships and employment.
