Wright View
Suburban Neighborhood in Dayton, Ohio
Montgomery County 45403, 45431
Renovated historic homes
The streets of Wright View crisscross against mature trees and foliage to create a cozy stretch of green suburbia, complete with row after row of classic and more modern house styles. “With the homes closer to Smithville Road toward the east, you’ll find more recent houses, such as brick Cape Cods built in the 1940s and ‘50s with an attached garage,” Davison says. Small, sloped front yards are a common sight, with narrow sidewalks connecting one residential area to another. Driveways and garages are frequent in the newer sections of town, with street parking being the law of the land in the older spots. Craftsman, Cape Cod, American Foursquare and bungalows are among the most popular housing styles, with a small renovated bungalow starting in the high $80,000s and well-maintained ranch-style homes reaching the low $100,000s. A fully restored American Foursquare will hit the high $100,000s.

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.
