Salem is a city in northern Columbiana County, Ohio, United States. At the 2020 census, the city's population was 11,915.[5] Extending into southern Mahoning County, it is the principal city of the Salem micropolitan area, which includes all of Columbiana County.[6] It lies about 18 miles (29 km) southwest of Youngstown, 28 miles (45 km) east of Canton, and 60 miles (97 km) southeast of Cleveland.
Founded by the Quaker society in 1806, Salem was notably active in the abolitionist movement of the early- to mid-19th century as a hub for the American Underground Railroad. Through the 20th century, Salem served as one of many industrial towns in Northeast Ohio's Mahoning Valley region. Today, the city is a commuter town and an economic center of Columbiana County, home to Allegheny Wesleyan College and Kent State University at Salem.
