On the surface, Fox Meadow Drive, Medina, Ohio, United States (StreetScore 73.06) looks like a normal kind of place. It's south of the center of Medina (CityScore 72.33) between Medina and Wadsworth (CityScore 83.73). The nearest big city is Cleveland (CityScore 59.94) to the north. The Fox Meadow neighborhood is built around a golf course and country club and there is an active home owners association (HOA). Given the current stresses in the housing and mortgage market, however, things are not as rosy as they appear in the brochures. There is growing unease and unhappiness in Fox Meadow about the strict rules of the HOA, the economic viability of the golf course and country club, the use of golf carts on the sidewalks and the collapse in property values.

written by Dionne Grabowski, our invited food critic for the week!   A few Friday nights ago my boyfriend and I went to the House of Hunan in Medina for dinner. It was a wonderful Asian restaurant located at 18 Public Square in downtown Medina, Ohio. The atmosphere was very inviting. the front of the restaurant opens up completely to the outdoors where you can sit out on the sidewalk in a little courtyard. The food is authentic Chinese, with some fusion. The tables are set up with wooden bamboo placemats and chopsticks for a"real Chinese adventure in dining!". They did not serve domestic beer so I ordered Kirin Light, which tasted like Bud Light, only better. It was light and crisp and hoping to purchase some at a local beverage store. They served us Steak Rollups for dinner. My plate h... 07/16/2008
