Clifton

Greater Cincinnati Area

Clifton was incorporated as a village in 1850 with the growth of Cincinnati suburbs and was annexed as part of Cincinnati in 1896. In the early 1900s, the University of Cincinnati and Hebrew Union College were established and the area gained great esteem as the intellectual center of Cincinnati. Today, Clifton is an “in-city suburb” and is a distinctive neighborhood with its cultural diversity. It is a great place to call home for those who enjoy daily city life in a suburban setting.

With old-fashioned gas lamps and wide tree-lined avenues, Clifton still reflect the elegance of yesteryear. Some of the mansions that once housed Cincinnati leaders have been restored to their original grandeur. In addition, a number of old, well preserved, brick and frame homes remain, adding to the historical flair of the neighborhood. Many homes are located on larger city lots offering a suburban-like lifestyle. Newer, brick-style homes are also available.
