Which Great Lake has the city of Cleveland on its southern shore?

Lake Erie has Cleveland on its southern shore.

Cleveland is one of the major cities on the Great Lakes and sits on the lake’s southern shoreline in the U.S. state of Ohio. The city’s waterfront is connected to a long history of shipping, manufacturing, fishing, and recreational development.

Lake Erie is the shallowest of the five Great Lakes overall, which allows it to warm relatively quickly in summer and freeze more readily in winter than the deeper lakes. Its western basin is especially shallow, while the eastern basin reaches much greater depths.

Other major Lake Erie cities include Buffalo, Erie, Toledo, and Windsor. Toronto is on Lake Ontario, a common source of confusion when identifying large urban centers around the eastern Great Lakes.
