What it’s like
The place. Vinton is a very small village in Gallia County, Ohio, where people know one another by sight and the pace is quiet. Few adults here hold a four-year degree, and very few work from home. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month and a fair amount of snow, while summers turn warm and the year brings plenty of rain.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with manufacturing, shops, and transport, warehouses and utilities also employing many. Across Gallia County, the largest workplaces include Holzer, the general hospital, Gallia County Local Schools and the University of Rio Grande. Unemployment across the county is lower than it was a year ago, and the number of jobs has edged up slightly.
Things to do. Wayne National Forest is a protected area a longer drive away, with woodland to explore. Tu-Endie-Wei State Park, also a longer drive away, is a protected area tied to the history of the river country. The Kanawha River, another longer drive, offers a broad river for walking its banks or watching boats go by.
