History

Clark-Fulton is part of an old ethnic neighborhood that include the Old Brooklyn and Archwood-Denison areas.[5] Early settlers were German[3] and Eastern European families particularly those with Polish and Slovenian ancestry.[5] According to the 2018 U.S. census estimate, the neighborhood has the highest concentration of Puerto Ricans, and Hispanics overall, in Cleveland and Cuyahoga County.[6] This development was driven by competition for housing with other ethnic minorities.[7] Puerto Rican migrants initially settled around the area of the Lady of Fatima Catholic Church.[7]
