Suburban, family-friendly living north of Cincinnati
Located about 10 miles north of Downtown Cincinnati, Mount Healthy is a city and neighborhood loved by locals for its unique blend of small-town charm and urban agriculture. With "Historical buildings, local businesses and quality schools all in the neighborhood, you have everything you need nearby," says new resident Mike Tobin. In this small town, residents love being able to “zoom into the city for an afternoon at the Cincinnati Zoo or Great American Ball Park and return for a quiet evening" amongst Mt Healthy's beautiful mulberry trees and historic homes. More than simply a peaceful environment, the neighborhood offers its residents a "Sense of community engagement and social responsibility that you won’t find anywhere else in Cincinnati," says Tobin, adding that "I don't ever plan on moving.” Residents can feel this special atmosphere of Mt Healthy through ways neighbors look out for each other, whether it be their Little Free Library program or “The green lifestyle that is a rapidly growing part of the neighborhood,” says Karen Arnett, Chair of the Mt. Healthy Renaissance Project. Residents here often enjoy backyard projects like tending to a garden, keeping bees or having a chicken coop. "Residents here even extract syrup from the maple trees, " says Arnett, explaining that, "because the area’s soil is so rich backyard and community gardens have really kicked off, people get together every spring for a plant swap." With an active community enjoying social events and the perks of living outside Cincinnati, Mt Healthy is a welcoming, family-friendly neighborhood where residents can enjoy a slow-paced lifestyle.
