Strengths: Some strengths of Austintown’s recreational activities are having a large selection of activities ranging from different parks to comedy clubs to a casino. Another strength is that there is something to do in Austintown at all hours of the day and there are many different activities for all different ages to enjoy. Austintown also supports it's elderly population with a senior center that many elderly adults are a part of.
Weaknesses: A weakness that I noted in Austintown’s recreational activities is that there isn’t an Austintown gym or sports complex that is mainly for the citizens of Austintown, the gyms and baseball complex are privately run and owned. If Austintown was to have a main building for different sports and workout facilities, it would bring a sense of community. Also all the recreational activities are very spread out in Austintown and are not close together.
