What it’s like
The place. Fayetteville is a small village in Brown County, Ohio, with a population small enough that most residents likely know one another by sight. Household incomes run above the county's, and few people live below the poverty line. Homes here are valued well above what many older homeowners elsewhere in the region might expect. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month and freezing nights, and summers are warm, with July the warmest. Rain and melted snow add up to a fair amount over the year.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, followed by manufacturing, shops and professional and business services. Across Brown County, the largest workplaces include Western Brown Local Schools, Kroger Cincinnati-Dayton KMA and Ohio Valley Manor Care Community. Few people work from home, and the typical commute is a long one. Unemployment in the county has eased compared with a year earlier, and the county has added a few more jobs.
Things to do. Stonelick State Park, a protected area, is a short drive away and suits a day outdoors. Farther afield, Serpent Mound is an archaeological site and Kings Island is an amusement park, each a longer drive away. Fort Ancient, a park, is also a longer drive.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Fayetteville’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 Brown County and the Cincinnati, OH-KY-IN metro.
