What it’s like
The place. Beaver is a small village in Pike County, Ohio, with a population that stays well under the size of most towns. Homes here are modestly priced, and few adults hold a four-year degree. Winters are cold and snowy, summers are warm, and rain and melted snow fall steadily through the year.
Work. People in the village work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with manufacturing, shops, and restaurants and hotels close behind. Across Pike County, some of the largest workplaces are Kirchhoff Automotive, a metal stamping plant, Walmart, and Waverly City Schools. Very few residents work from home, and unemployment across the county has eased compared with a year earlier.
Things to do. Lake Katharine State Nature Preserve and Pee Pee Creek are both a short drive away, and the Little Scioto River is close as well. For a longer outing, Hopewell Culture National Historical Park is an archaeological site with ancient earthworks, and Lake White State Park is a protected area built around a lake.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Beaver’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively high. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Pike County and the Jackson, OH metro.
