Harrison, OH- A Great Place to Live and Work

Founded in 1814 and incorporated in 1850, Harrison, OH was named for William Henry Harrison, ninth President of the United States. It became a city in 1981. The community’s location, as a historical western outpost to Cincinnati, is reflected in the area’s older country homes. There’s also new construction in a country setting. Shoppers and visitors come to the annual celebration of the arts and Christmas Walk. A favorite stop here is Market Street Grille housed in an 1850s building. It is home to Harrison Christian Home, a nondenominational school, PreK–6. Although near the Indiana border, Harrison’s location on 1-74 makes it a convenient commute to both downtown and the airport (via 1-275). It’s within reasonable driving distance to Columbus, Dayton and Indianapolis. Residents like the fact that Miami Whitewater Forest is nearby. There are campgrounds, ball fields, walking and biking trails, a lake and paddleboats in this small, progressive and beautiful community.
