Golf in Kinsman

Kinsman is a Trumbull County village in the rural northeastern Ohio countryside east of the Mahoning Valley industrial corridor, a community whose agricultural character distinguishes it from the manufacturing-defined communities closer to Youngstown. The surrounding countryside and the county's varied terrain—transitioning from the agricultural interior to the more wooded, lake-influenced areas near the Pennsylvania border—provide the landscape context for a community that maintains the farming traditions that predate the Mahoning Valley's industrial era. The rural character of eastern Trumbull County provides a contrast to the Youngstown industrial corridor, and golf in communities like Kinsman serves a population whose recreational traditions are rooted in the agricultural and natural character of the northeastern Ohio countryside.
