What it’s like

The place. Chickasaw is a very small village in Mercer County, Ohio, where nearly everyone lives in a home they own. Household incomes run well above the county's, and very few residents live in poverty. Winters are cold and snowy, with January the coldest month, and summers turn warm, with July the warmest; rain and melted snow fall steadily through the year.

Work. Residents work mostly in manufacturing, in schools, hospitals and social care, and in farming, forestry and mining. Across Mercer County, some of the biggest employers are Crown Equipment Corporation Celina, which makes industrial trucks and tractors, Cooper Farms, a poultry processor, and Celina City Schools. Unemployment in the county is lower than it was a year earlier, though the county has fewer jobs than it did the year before; the typical commute is a short one, and very few people work from home.

Things to do. The Shrine of the Holy Relics, a museum, is in or beside town. A short drive away are Grand Lake St. Marys, a large reservoir, and Grand Lake St. Marys State Park, a protected area along its shore. The Bicycle Museum of America is also a short drive away, and the St. Marys River is another short trip.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Chickasaw’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. 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 Mercer County and the Celina, OH metro.
