New Carlisle is a small-town suburb with a rural feel

New Carlisle is a small town with a rural feel just a short drive from both the north Dayton suburbs and Springfield. Founded by migrants from Carlisle, Pennsylvania, in the early 19th century, the town's economy was based around farming for most of its existence. These days, however, locals are more likely to commute to Dayton, Springfield or Wright-Patterson Air Force Base for work. "A lot of communities in the area are entirely residential, but New Carlisle definitely has more of a small-town feel," says Realtor Theresa Jennings of Re/Max Victory, who has worked in the area for over 16 years. "Things revolve around Main Street. It's kind of like a meeting place for the entire town."

A wide selection of midcentury and early 20th-century homes

Housing options in New Carlisle are typical of the north Dayton suburbs. Midcentury ranch-style homes are common, as are turn-of-the-century bungalows and cottages. A few contemporary homes can also be found around the outskirts of town. While properties outside the city limits often come with a few acres attached, homes in New Carlisle itself mostly feature modest yards similar to those found closer to Dayton. Homes in the area generally sell for between $140,000 and $380,000, though larger homes and properties occasionally go for more.

Local retail centers around a quaint Main Street

Most storefronts in New Carlisle line the blocks just north of the town's main intersection of Main and Jefferson streets. This walkable downtown area is home to a selection of small shops, along with highly rated eateries like the Penny Lane Art Gallery & Cafe and the Taqueria Cueramaro taco truck. The local IGA Supermarket can be found a few blocks to the north. Main Street also hosts the New Carlisle Farmers Market on Saturdays throughout the summer. Residents looking for additional shopping options generally head to either Springfield or the Dayton suburbs, which are both less than 20 miles away.

Home to a variety of recreational amenities

There are a few well-maintained city parks scattered around town. Smith Park on Jefferson Street is home to a playground and athletic courts, and also serves as the southern starting point of the 2.4-mile paved Tecumseh Trail, which runs along the west side of town. On warmer days, locals can stop by the New Carlisle Pool and Skatepark, which is located next to the New Carlisle Public Library just off Main Street. On the north side of town, the Sugar Isle Golf Course has 18 holes and is open to the public.

Tecumseh Public Schools

The public schools in the area are part of the Tecumseh Local School District, which has a C-plus on Niche. New Carlisle Elementary School has a B-minus, while Tecumseh Middle School and Tecumseh High School both have C-plus ratings. Tecumseh High School offers dual enrollment courses through nearby colleges, including Clark State College in Springfield.

October's Heritage of Flight Festival draws thousands

Every first weekend in October, Main Street closes for the Heritage of Flight Festival, a three-day mash-up of plane-themed parades, a classic-car cruise-in, carnival rides, fireworks and live music. The festival has drawn thousands of visitors annually for over 20 years.

Car ownership is a necessity

State routes 571 and 235 are the main ways in and out of town. They both run south to U.S. Route 40, which connects to Springfield, and to the network of interstate highways that surround Dayton. "Living up there can feel kind of remote," says Jennings. "But it's actually super easy to get to Springfield or Dayton. It's all highway, and there's hardly ever much traffic." It's a little over 12 miles to Springfield and roughly 17 miles to Dayton. Dayton International Airport is about 15 miles west of town and offers direct flights to 12 destinations throughout the country. There is no regular public transportation in town, and most locals consider car ownership a necessity.
