Formerly known as the village of East Youngstown, Campbell was renamed for local industrialist James A. Campbell in 1922, then chairman of the Youngstown Sheet and Tube Company.

Campbell is often referred to as the "City of Churches," because of the wide variety of houses of worship found throughout the community.

A wide range of education opportunities are close by.  In addition to a very good public school system, the Mahoning County Joint Vocational School and Youngstown State University are within a few miles of the city. 

Roosevelt Park, located in the northeast quadrant of the city, offers Campbell residents 64 acres of park for picnicking and ice skating. The city also has baseball, softball, and soccer fields as well as tennis courts for the public to enjoy.
