The Friendly Town

With its small-town atmosphere, it’s easy to see why Madeira, Ohio, is billed as “the friendly town.” Officially, Madeira is a Hamilton County city, with a population of 8,726 as of the 2010 U.S. Census. With its nationally recognized school district, low crime rate and prime location easily accessible to Interstate 71, Madeira, a suburb of Cincinnati, Ohio, has held either the #1 or #2 spot for the past four years in the Top Burbs list published by Cincy Magazine.

Madeira, originally developed along the Cincinnati-Parkersburg, West Virginia, railroad line, is named for John Madeira, who owned a substantial piece of land in the area. Incorporated in 1910, much of the city’s founding history is represented in current day, with many of Madeira’s streets named for land owners and developers from the 1840s and 1850s, and the oldest dateable building, from 1839, still standing in the city.

High Quality of Life

BusinessWeek magazine has ranked Madeira one of the best places to raise kids for less. The U.S. Census indicates the median age of the Madeira population is 44.5 and the median annual household income is $78,567. Compared to the Ohio state average, Madeira is above average in the length of stay since moving to the city, the number of rooms per house and the percentage of residents with bachelor’s degree or higher. The city is significantly below state average in unemployment and renting percentage.

The city of Madeira places high priority on education. The Madeira City School District has received an “Excellent” designation on the state report card ever since the rating system was introduced. The school district also received a Silver Medal from U.S. News and World Report for being a top public high school in the country. Madeira students are among the highest performers on SAT, ACT and state achievement tests.

The Madeira Art Fair, established in 1961 and held every year along Miami Avenue on the first Sunday of May, showcases the artistic creations of nearly 150 artists from Madeira and the surrounding area. The Nelle V. Hosbrook Bird Sanctuary and two city parks join a host of private swim, golf, tennis and other recreational clubs that residents enjoy year round.
