What it’s like
The place. Beaverdam is a very small village in Allen County, Ohio, the kind of place where residents are likely to know one another by name. Home values here run modest, and few adults hold a four-year degree. Winters are cold and snowy, summers turn warm, and precipitation falls across the year.
Work. People in Beaverdam work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with many others in manufacturing, shops, and restaurants and hotels. Across Allen County, some of the largest workplaces are Ford Motor Company, with its engine manufacturing, along with St. Ritas Medical Center and Lima Memorial Hospital. The typical commute is short, and the county's job market has grown slightly over the past year.
Things to do. The Allen County Museum is a short drive away, as are the Ohio Theatre and Dial–Roberson Stadium. Hog Creek is also close by for time near the water. A longer drive leads to the Armstrong Air and Space Museum, one of the better known sights in the area.

It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
