Old North Dayton Homes for Rent

Old North Dayton, situated between the Miami and Mad rivers, is about 2 miles from downtown Dayton. The Mad River is popular for kayaking, and the Miami River is known for fishing. The neighborhood has a rich history of Turkish and German immigrants; generations of their families still live here. Housing options include early 20th-century Foursquares, Colonial Revivals, and bungalows, as well as midcentury ranch-style and Cape Cod homes. There are also duplexes and small multifamily buildings, and renting is common. There has been a significant amount of revitalization following a destructive tornado in 2019. German food is on the menu at Amber Rose Restaurant and Catering, which has been open since 1990. A Taste of Old North Dayton, hosted by the Old North Dayton Neighborhood Association and the McCook Field Neighborhood Association, is held at Stuart Patterson Park. The neighborhood's northwest section is home to several manufacturing employers, including Mahle, a German-based automotive parts manufacturer, and Norwood Medical, a company that makes medical devices. The nearby Action Sports Center is known for baseball, softball and soccer amenities and attracts teams from across Ohio for tournaments. It includes an 18-acre lake and an indoor facility. Dayton Children's Hospital, the region's only pediatric hospital, is close by. The Greater Dayton Regional Transit Authority (RTA) offers public transportation with bus stops throughout the neighborhood.
