Amherst was built by sandstone -- literally. In the late 19th century, there were about nine quarry businesses digging up the stone and using that stone to make buildings all over town. That led to the town being nicknamed the 'Sandstone Capital of the World'. I mean, it's not the greatest claim to fame, but it's something, right?
The buildings that were built all those years back have brought the population of Amherst up to just over 12,000, at the time of the 2010 U.S. Census. The city is found in Lorain County, Ohio, and is part of the Greater Cleveland area, about 25 miles from Cleveland town proper. To the north, only a handful of miles away, is Lake Erie, while there are numerous other towns and settlements in the vicinity along the shore of the lake and further inland. View Amherst City Guide
