Kenmore, located between Downtown Akron and Barberton, is a residential and industrial Akron neighborhood with a historic commercial corridor and hillside views. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Kenmore Boulevard near 13th Street SW, where brick storefronts, corner taverns, and long-running local shops set a steady, lived-in rhythm. The Rialto Theatre anchors the strip with marquee lights and a classic main-street facade. Kenmore Komics & Games adds a niche, community-minded storefront presence, and Kenmore Construction Company signals the area’s working roots. Housing leans toward early-20th-century frame homes and compact lots, with pockets of small apartment buildings near the boulevard. Parks and school grounds break up the grid, and the boulevard’s wide lanes keep the neighborhood oriented around its main spine.
