Kenwood
Neighborhood Reviews
Larger homes than surrounding areas
A single-family home in Kenwood has a median price point of $360,000. The homes are mostly split-level or ranch-style builds with a few Colonial Revival houses mixed in. “The two-story and ranch-style homes are bigger than those in neighboring Deer Park,’ says Elder. “If you’re in Kenwood, you’re paying for the bigger lot and square footage. While most of the houses were built in the middle of the 20th century, new developments have sprung up in recent years. Homes are tucked away on roads that only see residential traffic and feature private driveways for parking. Mature trees provide shade and color to the neighborhood, while many homes have front and back yards with gardens.

Kenwood has the malls
There is no shortage of dining and shopping options in Kenwood. Truva Turkish Kitchen has a hip vibe with black décor and exposed brick. In addition to traditional Turkish cuisine, Truva also has a full bar with specialty cocktails. For a special night out, Trio Bistro is serving upscale steak and seafood favorites. Those craving dessert can visit 3 Sweet Girls. This bakery has brownies, cupcakes and cookies available to take home daily, but also makes specialty cakes for larger parties and special occasions.Shoppers will delight with a pair of major shopping centers located in Kenwood. Kenwood Towne Centre is an enclosed shopping mall with over 180 shops. The mall features everything from national chains to local boutiques and has plenty of upscale retailers. There are also dining options and events throughout the year. Kenwood Square is another mall that features national chains like DICKS, Home Goods and more. Grocery shoppers will not have to venture far as there are Trader Joe's and Fresh Market locations in Kenwood.

Strong private and public schools
Kids in Kenwood attend the Madeira City School District, beginning at Madeira Elementary. The elementary school was named by Niche as one of the top 25 elementary schools in Cincinnati. Next is Madeira Middle and then Madeira High, which was praised as one of the top STEM schools in Ohio. All three institutions earned A grades from Niche and were ranked as some of the top schools in Cincinnati. There are also private options, like Archbishop Moeller High School, which was ranked as the fourth-best private school in Ohio.

Bob Meyer Park and more
Bob Meyer Park is home to the local Little League and hosts many youth baseball games. There is also a batting cage for kids to practice their swings. The park also features a playground and green space for children. For an afternoon picnic, locals may head to Betchold Park, which features tables and community grills. The park has walking and nature trails for exercise and three playgrounds for children. There are two sand volleyball courts and an outdoor basketball court for pick-up games. Golfers can take to Kenwood Country Club’s difficult 18-hole championship course.

Metro around town
The Go Metro serves Kenwood as well as the entire Cincinnati area. The Metro has frequent stops on Kenwood Road and Route 22. Interstate 71 runs right through Kenwood, as does US Route 22, making it easy to take major roads to neighboring areas.

GreatSchools:
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Niche Review
It is a relatively safe place, but it is in the middle of Ohio so there isn't much to learn from culturally.

Niche Review
This neighborhood is very welcoming, and a great environment for families with kids. I've made plenty of friends here, and long-lasting connections with other residents. It is very safe overall and I feel comfortable living here. I also enjoy the amount of people who walk the neighborhood. I would however like to see more diversity.
