What it’s like
The place. Madeira is a small city in Hamilton County where nearly everyone owns the home they live in, and the typical household earns far more than the county's typical household. Very few residents live below the poverty line, and most adults hold a four-year degree. Winters are cold, with January highs a little above freezing, and summers are warm, with July the hottest month.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with many others in professional and business services, manufacturing and shops. Among the largest workplaces in Madeira are Madeira City Schools, Kroger Cincinnati-Dayton KMA and Lionstone, a nursing home operator. The typical commute is short, and unemployment across Hamilton County has eased compared with a year earlier.
Things to do. The Stanley M. Rowe Arboretum, a botanical garden, is in or beside town. A short drive away are the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden and the Cincinnati Art Museum. Kings Island, an amusement park, is 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 Madeira’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 Hamilton County and the Cincinnati, OH-KY-IN metro.
