It lies 2.8 miles north of North Olmsted, OH (from North Olmsted, OH: bearing 6°T), and is situated 6.5 miles west-south-west of Lakewood. Rolling hills, softened by centuries of cultivation and development, give way to the subtle, almost imperceptible dip towards the vast, shimmering expanse of Lake Erie.

Even in the bustling commercial districts, a quiet sense of spaciousness prevails, a feeling that the land itself retains a memory of its wilder, open days. The story of Westlake is one of resourceful settlement and evolving prosperity. Originally part of the Connecticut Western Reserve, its fertile soil quickly attracted farmers drawn to the promise of abundant harvests, a legacy still echoed in the lingering agricultural pockets that dot the fringes of the town.
