What it’s like
The place. Springdale is a small city in Hamilton County, Ohio, part of the Cincinnati area. Its residents are somewhat younger than the typical age for a town people often think of as settled, and household incomes sit a little below the county's. A majority of homes are lived in by their owners, though renting is common too, and typical rents run high compared with what many people expect for the area. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month, summers are warm and July is the hottest, and rain and melted snow fall steadily through the year.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, in the building trades, and in banks, insurance and property. Within Springdale, some of the largest workplaces are Ampac Holdings, Smithfield Foods and Macy's. Most people have a commute of a fairly ordinary length, and a share of residents work from home. Across Hamilton County, jobs were slightly fewer last year than the year before, while unemployment has eased compared with a year earlier.
Things to do. The best known places nearby are in and around Cincinnati, each a longer drive away. The Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden is a zoo with gardens, and the Cincinnati Art Museum is a museum for a quieter day out. Kings Island is an amusement park, also a longer drive away, and a draw for families and thrill-seekers alike.
