The estimated 1,596 housing units for the 2022 population, based on the national average household size of 2.61 persons, suggests a diverse housing stock.
South Fairmount's location within Cincinnati provides access to urban amenities while potentially offering more space than denser downtown areas. The neighborhood's density supports local businesses, community services, and potentially some public transportation options.
South Fairmount is characterized by hilly terrain, which has influenced its development patterns and infrastructure. This geographical feature contributes to its distinct character and may affect housing density, street layout, and local microclimates.
The recent stabilization of population numbers may indicate renewed interest in the area or revitalization efforts. However, the overall population decline over the past decade suggests ongoing challenges in retaining and attracting residents. Future development strategies and community initiatives will likely influence the neighborhood's trajectory and residents' quality of life.
