Diverse community with English roots
Lewis Kennedy sought to develop an ideal suburban environment in 1880s Cincinnati, wanting “a park-like air to the whole place.” With an English countryside in mind, he planned spacious lots with tree-lined streets and pastoral Tudors planted on top of them. Streets were tentatively named after English writers like Charles Dickens and Thomas Wyatt.That ambitious plan became Kennedy Heights, and 150 years later, residents have created their own ideal suburb — a diverse and inclusive community. Perhaps the best representation of these ideals is the Progressive Dinner, a tradition started in the 1970s. “Different people agree to host the dinner every year,” says Realtor Molly Blenk, who has lived in the area since 2000. “You wind up at a random house with a round-robin of other residents. It’s a big symbol of Kennedy Heights, bringing people of all walks of life together.”

Events at KH Arts Center and Park
Spring brings the annual Sap Run when residents bring their competitive spirit to Kennedy Heights Park. The event offers options for any endurance level, from a family bike ride to a 15k race. The whole town will be there in summer, too, for outdoor concerts and Latin dance classes at Play in the Park. Sponsored by the community council, Winterfest has crafts, bonfires, and performances around the Kennedy Heights Art Center. “It’s a hub for the community, drawing people from all around the city,” says 14-year Realtor Molly Blenk with Comey and Shepherd. “They do some really innovative classes and summer camps for kids, as well as artist-in-residency programs.”
Two-bedroom Cape Cods with generous yards
Different than the Tudors of old, 1920s Cape Cods and bungalows are the modern-day staples of the neighborhood. The area’s emphasis on the Arts and Crafts style ensures that no home is the same as its neighbor—one façade might have white siding, while another has orange brick. Kennedy’s imagination endures in the form of tree-lined streets, and spacious yards have narrowed slightly to accommodate more residents. When they’re not sitting on front porches, neighbors preen their flower beds and gardens for the annual Landscape Award. Manicured two-bedroom homes will likely fall between $200,000 and $300,000, and rare three-beds might be found in the upper 200s. New, custom-built homes to the north are extremely limited, priced at $650,000 and bordering French Park.

Education at Woodford and Shroder Paideia
Students can start at Woodford Paideia Elementary, rated a C by Niche. Since Cincinnati high schools serve grades seven through 12, they’ll likely advance to Shroder Paideia High. Here, students will encounter varying teaching styles, such as seminar discussions, direct lectures and coaching activities.
Woodford Academy serves grades pre-kindergarten through sixth in Kennedy Heights.

Have been a resident in Kennedy Heights for about 8 months now. This small community is the definition of "Up and Coming". There are multiple properties all throughout that are getting flipped and sold for major profit. Hopefully the growth will keep making it's way down Montgomery Rd. from Pleasant Ridge and extend into Kennedy Heights. Overall it is close to everything. You get the luxury of being a stones throw from Oakley/Hyde Park/Pleasant Ridge but paying a fraction of what those houses cost (for the time being). I'm interested to see Kennedy Heights grow over the next 5-8yrs. I can say that I am happy I decided to buy in this neighborhood.
