Proximity to the airport, mature landscapes and a variety of shopping and dining
Just 14 miles from Downtown Cincinnati, across the Ohio River and down Interstate 71, sits Oakbrook. This spacious suburban community is conveniently located next to I-71 and the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport, making travel a breeze. However, with the convenience of the airport comes noise, something that Michael Parker, a Realtor with Huff Realty and a resident of over 30 years, says factors into some homebuyers' decision to live in Oakbrook. The mature trees, wooded areas and well-landscaped lawns are another draw for homebuyers. “It’s something you don’t get in the new communities,” Parker says. Florence is next door to Oak Brook, which has many shopping and dining options. “Every restaurant and store you could ever want is within minutes,” says Carla Sue Jones, a Realtor with Culbertson Real Estate Group. Residents also enjoy sending their children to the Boone County Public School system, which is well-regarded in the area and provides students with various opportunities outside the classroom. When school’s out, the plethora of parks in and around the neighborhood gives students and adults a place to get active.

From ranch-style and split-levels to colonials and new-traditionals
The real estate market in Oakbrook is highly competitive, with good schools and a robust inventory of relatively newer homes driving up the cost. “The neighborhood is very well-maintained, and people have pride of ownership,” Jones says. There is a diversity of housing, both in price and style of housing, though it’s primarily single-family, with pockets of condos and townhouses. Ranch-style, Cape Cods and split-level homes are at the lower end of the price range, selling for between $100,000 and $350,000.

In Oakbrook, yards are clean and well landscaped, while the streets have sidewalks, with many under-shaded mature trees.
