What it’s like
The place. Midway is a very small village in Madison County, Ohio, with far fewer residents than most towns of any kind. Homes here cost less than the typical home across the country, and the town's adults are far less likely to hold a four-year degree than adults elsewhere. Winters are cold, with January days staying just above freezing and nights well below it, while July is warm. Rain and melted snow add up to a fairly wet year.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with many also employed in manufacturing, shops and professional and business services. Across Madison County, the largest workplaces include Amazon, Target and Stanley Electric, an automotive lighting maker. Unemployment across the county is lower than a year ago, and the county has added jobs, though the typical commute from Midway is a fairly long one.
Things to do. The Little Miami River, a river a short drive away, is the closest place to spend time outdoors. A longer drive brings you to Madison Lake State Park, a protected area, and to the Little Miami Scenic Trail, a trail well suited to walking or cycling. ScottsMiracle-Gro Field, a stadium, is also a longer drive away.
