What it’s like
The place. New Washington is a small village in Crawford County, Ohio, with a population that has stayed modest. Household incomes run above the county's, and a smaller share of people live below the poverty line than you might expect for a rural community. Homes here are priced moderately, and relatively few adults hold a four-year degree.
Work. Residents work mostly in manufacturing, in schools, hospitals and social care, in professional and business services, and in banking, insurance and property. Within the village, the largest workplaces include Buckeye Central Local Schools, Wurms Diversified Solutions, and HSM Solutions, which makes motor vehicle seats. Jobs across the county have slipped a little over the past year, and unemployment there has eased compared with a year earlier. Commutes are fairly long, and few people work from home.
Things to do. For time outdoors, the Sandusky River and Mount Gilead State Park, a protected area, are each a longer drive away. Racing fans can head to Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course, a race track that is also a longer drive from the village. Winters are cold, with a good deal of snow, and summers are warm, so plans for these outings tend to follow the seasons.

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