What it’s like
The place. Shreve is a small village in Wayne County, Ohio, where most homes are lived in by their owners. Household incomes run a little below the county's, and few adults hold a four-year degree. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month, summers are warm but not hot, and the year brings a fair amount of rain and melted snow.
Work. Residents work mostly in manufacturing, in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, and in the building trades. Across Wayne County, some of the largest workplaces are Wooster Community Hospital, The College of Wooster and GOJO Industries. The typical commute is fairly short, and almost no one works from home.
Things to do. Brown's Lake Bog is a protected area in or beside town, a quiet place for a walk. A longer drive away are Mohican State Park, a protected area with the Mohican River running through the region, and Malabar Farm State Park. The Ohio State Reformatory, a museum, is also a longer drive away.
