Little Wauseon has lots of heart
Wauseon is the seat of Fulton County and just a 40-mile drive from Toledo, Ohio. This town includes quiet streets with classic Midwestern farmhouses, Tuesday night antique car cruises down Fulton Street and locally owned businesses and restaurants. Whether getting in 18 holes at the golf course, or spending a Saturday at the public library, Wauseon residents value their little town with a lot of heart.
Classic cozy and spacious Midwestern homes
Houses here vary from ranch-style homes to split-levels and classic Midwestern farmhouses with roomy yards and driveways. “Most houses are right near town, and you’ll see prices around $200,000 to $300,000,” says Ginni Neuenschwander, a Realtor at Howard Hanna who has been selling houses in Wauseon since 1991. Finding three or four-bedroom houses under that $300,000 price isn’t uncommon, and for custom-built homes, former farmland and green lots with generous acreage are ready for new development.

A whale of a tale
The Wauseon Public Library is an original Andrew Carnegie building that broke ground in 1905. “This community we serve is diverse,” says Keri Black, library director of the Wauseon Public Library. “That’s why our library is an all-inclusive space with much more to offer than just books.” The library hosts monthly family craft nights, cookbook clubs, true crime discussions and a free book program. Teens can take advantage of the new teen lounge, and kids can see the life-sized blue whale tail story time rug, received from the library’s fellowship with the National Space Science Center.

Often times then not it's mostly fast food places that are hiring. Other job opportunities include Walmart, Chiefs Supermarket, and little shops. There is also a hospital in the town where many adults are able to work at. Besides that, if looking for a job one must probably have to travel outside of the town.

In my community the local businesses are the best around. Our town has multiple small stores that families within the county have created. A few of them include clothing stores, from high fashion to resell children stores. A newer buisness opened last summer for the motorcycle riders in our community. Our town is expanding quickly, and so are our business.
