Westwood Neighborhood Overview

Cincy’s Largest: Porch Swings Parish Pride

21of 36 Cincinnati Neighborhoods

🧭Bordered by: North Bend Road and West Fork valley to the north, Boudinot Avenue and Montana Avenue to the east, Glenway Avenue and Guerley Road along the southern ridge, and the Cheviot city line, Green Township boundary, and Westwood Northern Boulevard to the west and northwest

📌Well known for: historic Town Hall with community meetings people attend and West Side sarcasm that could cut glass

👕You can spot a Westwood local by: lawn chair diplomacy settling neighborhood issues from the driveway

👍Locals live here because: affordable mansions where $300k gets you four bedrooms and original woodwork and tree tunnel streets that block out the sun in summer (trust us, the shade is NICE)

👎Don't say we didn't warn you about: marathon leaf season when the tree canopy dumps approximately six tons of leaves on your yard

✨The general vibe is: grand, green, salt of earth and the high school you went to still matters even if you're 60
