What it’s like

The place. Newtown is a small village in Hamilton County, where neighbors tend to know one another. Residents are older than in many places, and incomes run well above the county's, with fewer households living in poverty than you might expect. Most homes are lived in by their owners, and a large share of adults hold a four-year degree. Winters are cold, with the coldest days in January, summers are warm and July is the hottest month, and the year brings a fair amount of rain and melted snow.

Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with many others in professional and business services, in banks, insurance and property, and in shops. The largest workplaces in Newtown include Meridian Bioscience, a maker of diagnostic products, and Dover, which makes industrial pumps. Across Hamilton County, unemployment has eased compared with a year earlier, though the number of jobs has dipped slightly. The typical commute is a moderate one, and a good number of people work from home.

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, and Kings Island, an amusement park, is a longer drive away. The Newport Aquarium is also a short drive from town.
