What it’s like
The place. Cheviot is a small city on the west side of Cincinnati, in Hamilton County. Its residents are younger than in most places, and incomes run below the county's, while homes cost less than many buyers might expect in a metro area. Owners and renters share the town fairly evenly, though more homes are lived in by their owners than rented. Winters are cold, with January highs near freezing and some snow, and summers turn warm, with July the warmest month. Rain and melted snow fall through the year.
Work. Residents work mostly in shops, in schools, hospitals and social care, in professional and business services, and in manufacturing. Several of the largest workplaces in Cheviot are in care and services, among them Terrace View Gardens, Bridgetown Nursing and Rehabilitation and the Cheviot Goodwill Store. Fewer adults hold a four-year degree than in many places, and a fair number of people work from home. Hamilton County has lost a few jobs over the past year, though unemployment there has eased.
Things to do. The Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden is a short drive away, as is the Cincinnati Art Museum, which makes an easy afternoon indoors when the weather turns. Sports fans can reach Great American Ball Park, a stadium, a short drive away as well. Spring Grove Cemetery, a botanical garden of old trees and quiet paths, is also close by.
