Montgomery, OH

In the heart of this historic town is a cluster of shops and business dwellings that retain much of the country charm of bygone days.

The spirit of Montgomery is anything but old-fashioned. Single-family homes, townhouses and apartments of almost every design have been added. Because strict zoning requirements have maintained a spacious wooded environment, the area has a lovely suburban atmosphere. And since new homes, for the most part, have followed the pattern of Montgomery's heritage, a traditional flavor is predominant throughout. As a wonderful place in which to reside, this neighborly community is second to none. It has an education system and dedicated residents who work continuously to preserve the rich quality of life.
