What it’s like
The place. Genoa is a small village in Ottawa County, Ohio, where most homes are lived in by their owners. Household incomes run below the county's, and typical home values sit in the low-to-middle range for the region. Winters are cold and the summers warm, with rain and melted snow spread through the year.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with many others in manufacturing, shops, and transport, warehouses and utilities. Across Ottawa County, some of the largest workplaces are Materion in Elmore, the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Plant and H B Magruder Memorial Hospital. Few people work from home, and the typical commute is a modest drive. Fewer adults hold a four-year degree than in many towns.
Things to do. For a day out, Maumee Bay State Park is a protected area on the lake shore, a longer drive away. Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge is another protected area for watching birds and wildlife, also a longer drive away. The Toledo Museum of Art is a museum and the best known of the nearby places, again a longer drive away.

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