Family-oriented suburban neighborhood near Downtown Cincinnati
Businessweek once named Groesbeck the best place to raise a family. With a combination of low home prices, good schools and a friendly atmosphere, it’s not difficult to see why. “People move to Groesbeck and stay in Groesbeck, so it retains the same families,” says Bonnie Overbeck, CEO and Realtor at 3B Realty Group. With easy access to Cincinnati via Colerain Avenue, it’s an ideal area for those who want to remain close to the city but have a quieter lifestyle. “It’s fairly simple to get to downtown, but you’re still in more of a suburban feel,” says Overbeck.
From split-levels to brick ranches and colonials
Homes in the neighborhood are variations of midcentury styles, from split levels with vinyl siding to classic brick single-story ranch styles and half brick, half vinyl siding colonials. These homes have sold for between $75,000 and $280,000. “There has also been traditional, newer construction within the last 20 years,” Overbeck says. These new-traditional homes have sold for between $280,000 and $580,000. Groesbeck streets are lined with sidewalks and mature trees, but most residents use their cars to get around, backed up by the neighborhood’s 47 out of 100 Walk Score. As for crime, the CAP Index gave Groesbeck a 4 out of 10 Crime Score, on par with the national average.

High marks for diversity at Colerain High School
As far as schools go, families have their pick of the crop. “People like the schools, both public and Catholic. There are a lot of options,” Overbeck says. For public schools, students may attend the Northwest Local School District. Children start at Colerain Elementary, which earned a B-minus grade from Niche. In sixth grade, students move to Colerain Middle School, which received a C grade from Niche. For high school, students move on to Colerain High School, which earned a B-minus grade from Niche. Colerain High is known for its diversity and Niche gave them an A in that category. Families can also opt for private education at Our Lady of Grace Catholic School, which serves kindergarten through eighth grade.
