Anderson Township enjoys over 16 miles of riverfront along the Ohio River, and the Little Miami River.  Many of Anderson Township’s most eye-catching houses are perched above the waters, with enviable river views. New construction, upscale and elegant, is prevalent in Anderson Township.

While there are outstanding estates located in Anderson, the area does offer a variety of homes.  There are quaint neighborhoods with cape cods, ranch style, and split level starter homes.  There are lovely, mature treed subdivisions with  20 – 40 year old 2 story homes, sidewalk communities that offer the very essence of  traditional subdivision living.

Anderson Township is served by the Forest Hills School District. Forest Hills has been  Awarded “Excellent with Distinction” by the Ohio Local Report Card.

Home to some of Cincinnati’s most popular attractions, including Coney Island , River Bend , and River Downs , people enjoy coming to the area for fun in the sun, concerts, and good ole’fashioned horse racing.

Anderson Towne Center is an open air mall, anchored by  Macy’s, and the largest Kroger  ever built! There are plenty of restaurants to enhance the trip to Macy’s, including Uno Chicago Grill , and  Latitude’s Café. Better known to the locals as ATP, Anderson Township Pub is a top sports bar in the area.

State Route 125 runs through Anderson Township. It’s a busy, busy place! Home to numerous professional buildings housing attorneys and physicians, independent stores, big box retailers, and restaurants, this strip of road, known locally as Beechmont Avenue, is one busy  area.

You will find Anderson Mercy Hospital, one of Cincinnati’s premier hospitals, and Mercy Health Plex, and outstanding health care and exercise facility.  Beechmont Racquet & Fitness will bring you up to date on memberships.

Golf enthusiasts will find private and public courses available within a short drive. Ivy Hills Country Club  is a PGA Certified Family Golf Course. I believe it still is the only golf course in the area to hold that award.  Woodland Mound is a public course with  a Frisbee area, hiking trails and play area for the kids.

This bustling town of long time Cincinnatian’s welcomes newcomers! One way to get involved is to visit the Farmer’s Market every Saturday through October. Supporting Ohio farmers, the market is located on 5 Mile Road. You’ll find fruits and vegetables of course, but also goat cheese, honey, tempting pastries, doggie treats and plenty more. 

After hitting the market and picking up some doggie treats, take your 4 legged buddies to the Anderson Dog Park for a romp.  There is a section for small dogs, and one for larger dogs.  Two legged creatures will enjoy it there too. You’ll find benches, pop machines and indoor restrooms.

Greater Anderson Days, a July tradition, is a festival of food, rides, games and fun. The Sunday finale is capped off by “oohs and awes” as Rozzi Fireworks light up the sky.

Known for its parks and green space, Anderson Township Park District  hosts a variety of indoor and outdoor activities, including youth basketball.  The fire department offers car seat inspections for new parents the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of the month, and by appointment.
