What it’s like
The place. Covedale is a small community where almost everyone owns the home they live in, far more than across the county as a whole. Poverty is lower than many places, and a good share of adults hold a four-year degree. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month and highs staying close to freezing, and some snow each year. Summers are warm, July brings the heat, and rain and melted snow add up to a fairly wet year overall.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, followed by banks, insurance and property, professional and business services, and shops. Across Hamilton County, some of the largest workplaces are Children's Hospital Medical Center, the University of Cincinnati and Cincinnati Public Schools. Unemployment across the county is lower than a year ago, though the county has slightly fewer jobs than the year before. The typical commute is a fairly long one, and some residents work from home.
Things to do. A short drive away, the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden is one of the best known places to spend a day. The Cincinnati Art Museum is a short drive away for those who prefer galleries, and Cincinnati Music Hall is a short drive away for an evening at the theatre. Sports fans can reach Paycor Stadium, also a short drive away.
