What it’s like

The place. New Bavaria is a very small village in Henry County, in northwestern Ohio. Its residents are few enough that most people know one another. Household incomes here are higher than the county's typical household income. Winters are cold and snowy, summers are warm, and rain and melted snow fall steadily through the year.

Work. Residents work in a mix of local trades and services. Manufacturing is one of the main kinds of work, alongside schools, hospitals and social care. Shops and building trades also employ people from the area.

Things to do. Independence Dam State Park is a protected area a short drive away. The Auglaize River, one of the best known rivers in the region, is a longer drive away. Fort Defiance, a fort, and Mary Jane Thurston State Park, another protected area, are also a longer drive away.

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 Henry County.
