Clermont County is one of the fastest-growing suburban counties in Ohio — a dramatic increase driven by suburban expansion east and northeast of Cincinnati. With Batavia as its county seat and the booming Milford and Loveland areas as economic centers, Clermont County has attracted major residential and commercial growth along the I-275 and US-50 corridors. The county sits along the northern bank of the Ohio River and features beautiful rolling hills characteristic of the region. Major employers include Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center (Eastgate campus), Great American Insurance, and numerous logistics, healthcare, and manufacturing employers. The county includes East Fork State Park — one of Ohio's most visited state parks — and the beloved Little Miami Scenic Trail. Clermont County is a historically significant area: the Ulysses S. Grant birthplace is just across the border in neighboring Brown County, and Grant Point Pleasant is accessible from here.
