What it’s like
The place. Harrison is a city in Hamilton County, in the far southwest corner of Ohio. Households here have higher incomes than across the county, and most homes are lived in by their owners rather than rented. Residents tend to be of working age, and a good many have a four-year degree. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month, and summers turn properly warm by July.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, in manufacturing, in shops and in professional and business services. Among the largest workplaces in Harrison are JTM Provisions Company, Hubert North America Service and Kroger Cincinnati-Dayton. The usual trip to work is a fairly long one, and some people do their jobs from home.
Things to do. Miami Whitewater Forest, a protected area of woods and open land, is a short drive away, as is the Whitewater Shaker Settlement, an archaeological site. For a longer outing, the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden and the amusement park at Kings Island are both a longer drive away.
