Mount Airy is a northwest Cincinnati neighborhood where residential streets, green space and everyday conveniences sit close together. Homebuyers can find a variety of housing styles, along with parks, local businesses and regional transportation routes nearby. Its wooded setting and location, a short drive from downtown, appeal to buyers who want both nature and city amenities within easy reach.
Much of Mount Airy's housing stock dates to the mid-20th century. Buyers have plenty of single-family home choices, including ranch and raised-ranch styles, Colonial Revivals, cottages and bungalows. Some late-20th-century New Traditional houses also appear on the market, often with features such as two-car garages that are less common among the neighborhood's older homes. Single-family home sales typically span from under $100,000 to the mid-$400,000s, depending on age, condition, updates and lot size. Lots are usually just shy of a quarter-acre. Larger homes on bigger lots tend to sell toward the top of that range.
Also in the mix are multifamily properties, which recently sold from the low $200,000s to the low $300,000s, along with a small number of condos and townhouses that sold in the $200,000s.
Overall, Mount Airy's median sale price sits in the low $200,000s, generally in line with or slightly below several nearby neighborhoods and the citywide figure.
Cincinnati Public Schools combines neighborhood attendance zones with a broad choice system of magnet schools and specialty programs. One well-known example is Walnut Hills High School, a selective college-preparatory school that has recently ranked as the top public high school in Ohio.
Families can apply to schools outside their zone through the district's School Selection Process, with placement based on eligibility, priorities such as sibling status and available seats.
Interstate 74 and Colerain Avenue run through Mount Airy, providing direct routes for local travel, while Interstate 75, which I-74 meets just outside the neighborhood, connects the area to the broader Cincinnati region. The Colerain Avenue Metro bus route links the neighborhood to uptown, downtown and other parts of the city, though most residents commute by car. Some approximate drive times include:
Mount Airy’s best-known feature is its namesake, Mount Airy Forest. At nearly 1,500 acres, it is Cincinnati's largest park and one of the first municipal reforestation projects in the country. Miles of trails wind through the woods, welcoming hikers and dogs beneath maple and oak canopies. Among the mature greenery, the Mt. Airy Arboretum houses extensive collections of trees and plants.
Nearby in College Hill, LaBoiteaux Woods Nature Preserve mixes woodland and green space, with more than 2 miles of hiking trails and native wildflowers that color the landscape in spring, summer and fall.
“You can go to the parks and have complete silence, but still be in the middle of the city,” says Alicia Stoughton, a Realtor with Keller Williams Advisors Realty. “It’s underrated; there’s nowhere else in the city quite like that.”
Colerain Avenue is dotted with international markets, including Asian, Nepali and Latino grocers, while larger grocery stores sit a few miles up the road in Colerain Township, where chains like Kroger, Aldi and Meijer offer more options. Closer to home, Putz's Creamy Whip has been a go-to for soft-serve ice cream cones for generations. For a sit-down meal, a few nearby favorites include:
Several community events take place in Mount Airy throughout the year, with many centered on the forest. A few to know:
