Hospitable city with a small town atmosphere

Xenia, the county seat of scenic Greene County, is a city known for its rich history and small-town charm. Located just 15 miles east of Downtown Dayton, this quiet community offers an idyllic combination of impressive outdoor options and excellent shopping and dining. Nicknamed the “City of Hospitality” — its name means “hospitality” in classical Greek — Xenia is also suffused with a friendly, welcoming atmosphere. “It’s basically just a nice place to live,” says Realtor Rhonda Chambal, owner of Irongate Realtors. “There’s more shopping than you would think, the downtown area has some great restaurants, and the Greene County parks and trails are really extensive.”

Historic and modern housing options

The housing in Xenia is diverse, featuring a range of styles from historic homes to more contemporary constructions. Many of the older homes in Xenia display architectural styles from the early to mid-20th century, often with large front porches and mature gardens. Newer developments on the city's outskirts provide modern housing options for homebuyers. Homes in Xenia typically sell for around $150,000 to $250,000, with the average floorplan offering about 1,500 square feet. Some small fixer-upper homes get under $100,000. Residential streetscapes in the town vary depending on their proximity to the center, ranging from quaint midcentury neighborhoods lined with mature shade trees to new developments with carefully manicured lawns and topiaries.

Commuting on Route 35

Getting in and out of Xenia is relatively easy. The city is situated near major highways like U.S. Route 35, which provides access to the larger metropolitan areas of Dayton and beyond. This makes Xenia a convenient place for residents who work in the city but prefer the slower pace of suburban life.
