Positioning for Progress 4 rating By Anonymous ( May 10, 2018) Living in Forest Park, Ohio might not seem as flashy as living in Mason or West Chester at first. However looking below the surface, one can see a township ‘positioning for progress’ as its motto says. Positives in our corner are high graduation rates thanks to a strong schoo ...Read More l system, affordable, accommodating housing, a well-managed public transport line with close proximity to the I-275 highway for drivers and a low cost of living. I have now lived here for six years and I would not consider moving anywhere else because it provides a lot of mine and my family’s needs.

Forest Park holds many events throughout the year that there is always something to do for everyone. Whether it is the Gospel Fest in April, Jazz in the Park during August or catching a breakfast with Santa and enjoying our tree lighting festival, there is always something to do and be involved in. As we move forward, we would love to have you with us. Read Less
