What it’s like
The place. New Philadelphia is a small city in Tuscarawas County, with a population somewhat older than the typical American community. Most homes are lived in by their owners, and typical home values and rents are moderate. Household incomes run below the county's as a whole, and more residents live below the poverty line than many would expect of a county seat this size. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month and highs staying close to freezing, and summers turn warm in July, with plenty of rain and melted snow spread through the year.
Work. Most residents work in manufacturing, in schools, hospitals and social care, in professional and business services, or in shops. The largest workplaces in town include New Philadelphia City Schools, Walmart and Battle Motors, a truck maker. Across the county, unemployment is lower than a year ago, though the number of jobs slipped slightly last year. Commutes are fairly short, and relatively few people work from home.
Things to do. Sugar Creek runs in or beside town, and Conotton Creek and Atwood Lake are both a short drive away, which suits anyone who likes time by the water. For museums, the First Ladies National Historic Site is a longer drive away, as is the Pro Football Hall of Fame, one of the best known museums in the region.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in New Philadelphia’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.
