What it’s like
The place. Toronto is a small city in Jefferson County, Ohio, on the Ohio River side of the state. Most homes here are lived in by their owners, and the typical home value is modest. Incomes run a little below the county's, and a good share of residents live below the poverty line. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month, and summers are warm, with July the warmest. Rain and melted snow add up to a fair amount over the year.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, followed by shops, restaurants and hotels, and manufacturing. Among the largest workplaces in town are Precision Castparts, which makes titanium bar, sheet and tubing, Toronto City Schools, and Riesbeck Food Markets. Jobs across Jefferson County dipped last year, and unemployment in the county is lower than it was a year earlier. A four-year degree is less common here than in many places, and the typical commute is fairly short.
Things to do. Holbert Run runs in or beside town, and Raccoon Creek State Park and Tomlinson Run State Park are both a short drive away for walks and time outdoors. For something further afield, Meadowcroft Rockshelter is a museum a longer drive away.

Natural hazards

- Strong windRelatively moderate
FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Toronto’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Jefferson County and the Weirton-Steubenville, WV-OH metro.
