What it’s like
The place. Sycamore is a small village in Wyandot County, with a population among the smallest of Ohio towns. Most homes are lived in by their owners, and incomes run well below the county's, with a noticeable share of residents living below the poverty line. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month, summers turn warm in July, and the year brings a fair amount of rain and melted snow.
Work. Residents work mainly in manufacturing, in schools, hospitals and social care, in transport, warehouses and utilities, and in restaurants, hotels and entertainment. Across Wyandot County, some of the largest workplaces are Prospira America, which makes mechanical rubber goods, Wyandot Memorial Hospital, and Hanon Systems USA, which makes vehicle heating and cooling units. The county has lost a little ground in jobs over the past year, and unemployment there has eased slightly from a year earlier. Few people work from home, and the typical commute is a fairly long one.
Things to do. Brandywine Creek is a river a short drive away. A longer drive brings you to the Sandusky River, and to Seneca Caverns, a tourist attraction. Van Buren State Park, a protected area, is also a longer drive from the village.
