Marthasville has small-town pride with ties to Washington
About 8 miles from Washington on the southern edge of Warren County, Marthasville is a city of 1,100. Known for their quiet country living, locals take great pride in their community, despite working closely with Washington for education and amenities. "They call it 'across the river' culture," says Elisha Hoerstkamp, a Re/Max Today broker. "They say, 'Oh yeah – I went to Washington High School, but I'm from across the river.'" Supported by local businesses, restaurants and recreation, the city is largely self-sufficient, though its proximity to larger cities gives the locals other options. Marthasville's CAP Index Crime Score is a 2 out of 10, compared to the national average of 4 out of 10.
