Picture a village in the countryside on the Great Miami River. Surrounded by nature for parks galore and space from the big city, Ross also functions as a bedroom community of Cincinnati. You may find the town ideal for an outdoorsy lifestyle or settling down — it has a well-rated school district and yardage that can stretch over acres of land.
Running through the middle of Ross, the main thoroughfare has many of the local businesses, while grid-style blocks and winding roads surround it for a mostly residential feel. The yards tend to be on the larger side and have mature trees to shade long driveways. “They have many older, historical homes from the 1800s. The small ones are on the affordable side,” says Realtor Chhabi Neopaney with Key Realty, LTD and eight years of experience in the area. Architectural styles include Georgian homes featuring Doric columns, Cape Cods, ranch-style houses and farmhouses with covered front porches. Sales prices can range from $215,000 for a ranch-style to $537,500 for a Georgian house.
Students in the area go to Ross Local School District, which earns an A-minus rating according to Niche. The schools include Elda Elementary School, Ross Middle School and Ross High School. The elementary school has an A-minus grade, the middle school also has an A-minus and the high school earns a B-plus on Niche. As for school recognition, the state of Ohio has given the elementary school an Excellent with Distinction rating.
“It’s a quiet, rural area with many parks. There’s a lot of nature and water recreation for people who like to exercise,” Neopaney says. Visit Heritage Park for the Miami River experience from kayak access points to hiking and biking on paths beside the water. On a summer’s day, you can also bring your water shoes and go swimming. For pet owners, the Furfield Dog Park is a unique recreation spot with a dog pool and diving board, plus a double fence to protect the animals. At Thomas O. Marsh Park, you can go fishing at a stocked pond or take a stroll on a short out-and-back trail.
As for retail and restaurants, the area has a selection that covers the basics and features local businesses. You drive to your weekly grocery run at Ross Fresh Market IGA, then search for unique décor at Venice Pavilion Antiques. To go out to eat, visit Shepherd's Ground Coffee Shop for seasonal drinks and baked goods. At Eli’s Sports Bar & Grill, a small Cincinnati chain, catch a Reds game on the TVs over the bar or have lunch with friends outside on the covered patio.
Ross has a couple of attractions for extra pizzazz to a small-town life. At Burwinkel Farms, a family-owned farm that provides the community with produce, visit during the autumn for the pumpkin patch, corn maze and hayrides. For a local amusement park, head to Stricker’s Grove for rollercoasters, a mini golf course and fireworks on the 4th of July.
About 26 miles from downtown Cincinnati, residents can commute to the big city via Interstate 74. For downtown adventures, visit Findlay Market and the Cincinnati Art Museum. In Ross, enjoy a small town with an outdoorsy lifestyle and highly rated schools.
