Home of Thomas Moore University, Crestview Hills combines elements of a college town with a thriving suburb. From the Catholic liberal arts campus to sprawling cul-de-sacs and a big-box center, Crestview Hills may provide a holy land for settling down. “People move there for the suburban feel and to raise their families,” says Melissa Jakubowski with eXp Realty and over 15 years of experience in the area.

Located south of Cincinnati, the community is composed of winding roads and cul-de-sacs of houses surrounding the shopping center and university. The first home was built nearly a century ago and today, the community has come to encompass six neighborhoods. Residences are nearly evenly split between single-family homes with larger yards with manicured garden beds and condos that have smaller lawns. Find older, mid-sized Colonial Revivals and Tudor houses in the area's first subdivision Old Crestview. For newer homes and more contemporary styles, check out Crown Point. “The prices have a wide leeway. The starter homes are usually affordable, and new construction can be expensive,” Jakubowski says. Sales prices can range from $324,000 for a Colonial Revival to $1.5 million for a five-bedroom contemporary home.

Crestview Hills students are served by the Kenton County School District, which earns a B-plus according to Niche. Schools include James A. Caywood Elementary School, Turkey Foot Middle School and Dixie Heights High School. All three high schools earn B-plus ratings on Niche. The high school offers the Prep and Prep+ Acceleration Program, a more rigorous curriculum for students with high academic achievement. As for higher education, Thomas More University is a private liberal arts college serving around 2,000 students. The athletic department hosts diverse sports leagues, including bowling and archery. When class is out, be sure to stop by the campus for their annual Summer Concert Series.

For quality time in the outdoors, access a couple of recreation hotspots. Freedom Park has a paved path for walks and jogs, plus courts and fields for basketball, volleyball and baseball. The Five Seasons Family Sports Club offers a wide variety of activities. Enroll in swim school, take a fitness class, get a personal trainer, or relax in the spa. For a private experience, become a member of Summit Hills Country Club. Enjoy their 18-hole golf course or hang out in the clubhouse.

The community has extensive retail and diverse eateries. Spend the day shopping and eating out at Crestview Hill Town Center, a big-box center with over 40 stores. Stock up on groceries for the week at Trader Joe’s or get clothes at Dillard’s. As for eateries, order fish and chips at The Pub, a British-themed bar and grill. Pick up a box of donuts or a boxed lunch at Servatii Pastry Shop or stop by for a pie at MacKenzie River Pizza, a dimly lit tavern.

Crestview Hills has a couple of attractions and events for a lively community. For horse racing and simulcast events, visit Turfway Park Racing & Gaming. Visit the weekly Crestview Hills Farmer’s Market that runs from Memorial Day to Labor Day to peruse vendor stalls with fresh produce and more.

About 8 miles from Cincinnati, residents can easily commute to the big city via Interstate 75 North. For public transportation, take the express bus to downtown Cincinnati. Crestview Hills is also close to the Northern Kentucky/Greater Cincinnati Airport for further travel and vacations. In Crestview Hills, enjoy sprawling cul-de-sacs of single-family houses and condos, a large strip mall and a college town atmosphere.
