As of the 2010 census, the city population was 44,750. The city's nickname 'Crossroads of the Nation,' originated from the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad (B&O) intersecting with the Southwestern Electric Line that connected Cleveland and Wooster, Ohio.[5] As the railroad line ceased operation in 1931, the motto and city seal have been adapted to reflect the modern day intersection of Interstate 71 and the Ohio Turnpike. [6]HistoryStrongsville officially became a township on February 25, 1818, a village in 1923, and was ultimately designated a city in 1961. Founded by settlers arriving in the newly purchased Connecticut Western Reserve, the city was named after John Stoughton Strong, the group's leader. Many of the main streets in the city are named after other principal figures and landowners from the city's history, e.g. Howe, Drake, Shurmer, Whitney.[7] In the mid-19th century, the Pomeroy House, then called The Homestead, was a stop on the underground railroad. Alanson Pomeroy, the home owner and a prominent Strongsville resident, concealed runaway slaves on his property. From this residence in Strongsville, the runaway slaves were taken to boats on Rocky River for passage to Canada.[8] In 1853, John D. Rockefeller's family moved to Strongsville. At the time, Rockefeller was only a child.[9] On April 11, 1965, an F4 tornado hit Strongsville; see 1965 Palm Sunday tornado outbreak. GeographyStrongsville is located at {{coord|41|18|46|N|81|49|55|W|type:city}} (41.312752, -81.831976).[10] According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of {{convert|24.64|sqmi|sqkm|2}}, of which {{convert|24.63|sqmi|sqkm|2}} is land and {{convert|0.01|sqmi|sqkm|2}} is water.[11] The east branch of the Rocky River enters Strongsville from North Royalton and exits into Berea. Valley Parkway parallels the river's northwesterly course. This portion of the Cleveland Metroparks, named Mill Stream Run, includes Bonnie Park and Ranger Lake. Abutting the Rocky River, the recreation area offers visitors a pavilion, picnicking facilities, two small ponds, and several sport fields. Bonnie Park serves as a hub for hiking, bridle, and paved multi-purpose trails.

With Strongsville's younger student population on the decline, and seven elementary school, Allen and Zellers, recently closed their doors. A private Catholic school, St. Joseph and John's, serves children through the 8th grade. In 2012, citizens approved a bond issue for $81 million.[20] The bond money was used to build a new middle school, combining Center and Albion middle schools, renovations to the high school, technology upgrades to the elementary schools, and renovations to the preschool. The new middle school was built just in time for the 2016-2017 school year.[21]
