What it’s like

The place. Dennison is a village in Tuscarawas County, Ohio, and a small one, with a younger population than is typical for the county. Incomes run below the county's, and more people live below the poverty line than most would expect. Fewer than most homes are owner-occupied compared with many Ohio communities, and few adults have a four-year degree. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month, and summers are warm, with July the warmest. Rain and melted snow add up to a fair amount over the year.

Work. Residents most often work in schools, hospitals and social care, followed by manufacturing, shops and professional and business services. Across Tuscarawas County, some of the largest workplaces are ProVia's Strasburg facility, which makes vinyl windows and window frames, Union Hospital Association, and New Philadelphia City Schools. Unemployment in the county is lower than it was a year earlier, though the number of jobs slipped slightly last year. The typical commute is a fairly long one, and few people work from home.

Things to do. For time on the water, Tappan Lake, Atwood Lake and Leesville Lake are all a short drive away; Tappan is a lake, while Atwood and Leesville are reservoirs. Farther afield, the Pro Football Hall of Fame is a museum a longer drive away, and so is the First Ladies National Historic Site.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Dennison’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively low. 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 Tuscarawas County and the New Philadelphia-Dover, OH metro.
