Western Hamilton County

The western half of Hamilton County is less populated than the eastern half, and remains divided into the original townships rather than having formed many cities. The western fringes of suburban Cincinnati give way to parkland and then farmland along the Great Miami River.

Understand
Most of this part of the county is divided into several townships: Springfield, Colerain, Green, Delhi, Miami, Whitewater, Crosby, and Harrison.

Some independent cities or villages in western Hamilton County include:


 * Cheviot. Tiny city close to Cincinnati, popular destination for bar-goers.
 * Cleves. Small village close to Cincinnati. Home of Harrison's Tomb historical site and also host to the annual Gravelrama event.
 * Harrison, a city mostly surrounded by the township of the same name.

By car
I-74 runs through the region on its way from Cincinnati to Indianapolis. I-275 crosses the regions as well.

By bus
METRO also has bus service to Harrison from Cincinnati, however it only runs during the week.
