Bratenahl is a community (village) in Cuyahoga County in the US state of Ohio . It is located in northeast Cleveland , directly on the shores of Lake Erie , is 1.63 square miles (4.22 km²) and had (2000) 1,337 inhabitants, 84.8% of them white.
The parish extends between 88th Street and 140th Street for approximately 4.3 kilometers in a southwest-northeast direction along the lake shore and extends approximately 400 to 800 meters inland. Interstate 90 Cleveland – Buffalo shields the area from the hinterland. The only neighboring city is Cleveland on all three sides.
Measured by the distance from Cleveland city center, Bratenahl belongs to the inner and therefore older suburban belt that was created before the Second World War . In contrast to most of these residential areas, Bratenahl is neither poor nor characterized by a high proportion of black population groups. Instead, the community is predominantly white and very wealthy; per capita income was $ 72,757, more than three times the US average and five times higher than Cleveland.
The village is predominantly characterized by small-scale, highly loosened housing developments. This, too, is in contrast to the densely built-up residential and industrial areas all around. Towards the end of the 1960s, two striking, luxurious high-rise apartment buildings were built on the lakeshore . Since the 1980s there has been increased activity in the luxury real estate sector, although the established population is critical of this.
Bratenahl was formed in 1903 when some residents of the lake properties in the former parishes of Glenville and Collinwood successfully resisted incorporation into Cleveland. The name comes from one of the landowners who owned a farm in this area in the mid-19th century.
