Westwood, Cincinnati: Clarifying the Location Confusion

There is no neighborhood named "Westwood" within the city limits of Cincinnati, Ohio. The confusion likely arises because:

  • Westwood, Ohio is a separate, incorporated village in Hamilton County, about 10 miles northwest of downtown Cincinnati.
  • Cincinnati does have a Westwood neighborhood—but it's officially called Westwood and is one of the city's 52 recognized neighborhoods, located on the west side.

Correction: Cincinnati's Westwood Neighborhood

Actually, Cincinnati does have a Westwood neighborhood—it's the city's largest by area and population (~35,000). Bounded roughly by:

  • North: Montana Avenue
  • East: Queen City Avenue / I-75
  • South: Harrison Avenue
  • West: Cheviot city limits / Green Township

Key landmarks: Westwood Town Hall (historic), Gamble-Nippert Mansion, Kroger's original headquarters, Westwood First Presbyterian Church.

Westwood Village (Separate Municipality)

The Village of Westwood (pop. ~2,300) is an enclave within Green Township, adjacent to but distinct from Cincinnati's Westwood neighborhood. It has its own mayor, police, and zoning.

Bottom Line

  • Cincinnati's Westwood: Large, historic west-side neighborhood inside city limits.
  • Village of Westwood: Small, independent municipality outside Cincinnati, in Green Township.

If you're looking for the Cincinnati neighborhood, you're in the right city. If you mean the village, it's a separate address.
