What it’s like
The place. Fredericksburg is a very small village in Holmes County, Ohio, where most people know one another by sight. Household incomes sit close to the county's, and very few residents live below the poverty line. Homes here are valued well above what many older homeowners might expect for a village this size. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month, and summers are warm without being extreme. Rain and melted snow are steady through the year.
Work. Residents work mostly in manufacturing, the building trades, shops, and in schools, hospitals and social care. Across Holmes County, some of the largest workplaces are Case Farms Processing, ProVia Walnut Creek Facility and West Holmes Local Schools. Unemployment in the county is lower than it was a year ago, and the county has added jobs over the past year. Relatively few adults hold a four-year degree, and some people work from home.
Things to do. The Amish & Mennonite Heritage Center, a museum, is a short drive away and a natural place to learn about the area's history. Farther afield, a longer drive brings you to the First Ladies National Historic Site, a museum in Canton, and the Pro Football Hall of Fame, one of the best known museums in the state. The Mohican River is also a longer drive away for time spent by the water.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Fredericksburg’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 Holmes County and the Wooster, OH metro.
