Mount Washington map

Mount Washington Neighborhood Overview

PTA Energy, Stanbery Trails, Chili

🧭Bordered by: Linwood and the Beechmont Levee to the west, the Ohio River bluffs above California to the south, the Little Miami River valley and Turpin Hills to the north, Anderson Township along Salem Road, Corbly Road, and the city line to the east

📌Well known for: Beechmont strip with every chain restaurant known to humanity, Stanbery Park with great trails but watch for deer, and Riverbend nights nearby

👕You can spot a Mount Washington local by: Calling it Mt Wash, living for LaRosas Tuesdays because $5 pizza night is sacred

👍Locals live here because: Hilly streets, mature trees, downtown within a quick scoot and it feels suburban without the suburb taxes

👎Don't say we didn't warn you about: Beechmont traffic, deer munching hostas and they will eat everything you plant, concerts echoing weeknights whether you bought tickets or not

The vibe around Mount Washington is: Green, porchy, low key friendly and boring in the best possible way

Porch sitters, park hikers, Riverbend pregame legends walk to concerts instead of fighting parking
