The East Fork of the Little Miami River crosses the county&#8217;s northern half and feeds William H. Harsha Lake, the largest body of water in the county; the Little Miami itself forms part of the western boundary before both rivers reach the Ohio.<\/p>\n<p>Clermont County borders <a href=\"https:\/\/townsvillages.com\/us\/hamilton-county-ohio\/\">Hamilton County<\/a> to the west, <a href=\"https:\/\/townsvillages.com\/us\/warren-county-ohio\/\">Warren County<\/a> to the north, <a href=\"https:\/\/townsvillages.com\/us\/clinton-county-ohio\/\">Clinton County<\/a> to the northeast, and <a href=\"https:\/\/townsvillages.com\/us\/brown-county-ohio\/\">Brown County<\/a> to the east. Across the Ohio River to the south and southwest lie Bracken, Pendleton and Campbell counties in Kentucky.<\/p>\n<h2>Demographics<\/h2>\n<p>Clermont County had 208,601 residents at the 2020 census. Its two largest communities are Loveland and Milford, both split with neighboring counties. Clermont&#8217;s median household income runs above the Ohio median of $67,769, reflecting its position as a Cincinnati commuter county; overall population density works out to roughly 461 people per square mile.<\/p>\n<h2>Economy &amp; Local Life<\/h2>\n<p>Clermont&#8217;s economy is anchored by logistics, insurance and healthcare, with a large share of residents commuting into Cincinnati. Total Quality Logistics, headquartered in Union Township, is one of the county&#8217;s largest private employers with roughly 2,000 local staff; American Modern Insurance Group, based in Amelia, employs over 1,200. Mercy Health&#8217;s Clermont Hospital in Batavia and Clermont County&#8217;s own government offices are major public-sector employers. The county fairgrounds in Owensville host the annual Clermont County Fair, one of the region&#8217;s longest-running agricultural fairs.<\/p>\n<h2>History<\/h2>\n<p>Clermont County was organized on December 6, 1800, from part of the Northwest Territory&#8217;s original Hamilton County \u2014 Ohio&#8217;s eighth-oldest county and the westernmost county of Appalachian Ohio. Its name comes from Clermont-Ferrand, the French home region of several early Virginia Military District land agents. Point Pleasant, on the Ohio River, is the birthplace of Ulysses S. Grant; the village of Utopia was briefly home to a Fourierist commune in the 1840s before its riverside buildings were swept away by an 1847 flood.<\/p>\n<h2>Getting There<\/h2>\n<p>Interstate 275 clips the county&#8217;s northwestern corner, linking it to the Cincinnati interstate system; US Route 50 runs east-west through Milford and Batavia, and US Route 52 follows the Ohio River through the county&#8217;s southern villages.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cincinnati \u2014 20 miles west<\/li>\n<li>Batavia \u2014 county seat, central county<\/li>\n<li>Georgetown, Brown County \u2014 20 miles southeast<\/li>\n<li>Lebanon, Warren County \u2014 15 miles north<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Cincinnati\/Northern Kentucky International Airport, about 30 miles southwest, is the nearest major commercial airport.<\/p>\n<h2>Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Where is Clermont County?<\/strong><br \/>\nIt is in southwestern Ohio, on the north bank of the Ohio River just east of Cincinnati.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is the population of Clermont County?<\/strong><br \/>\n208,601 people, per the 2020 census.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How big is Clermont County?<\/strong><br \/>\n460 square miles (1,200 km2), of which 452 square miles are land.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is the county seat of Clermont County?<\/strong><br \/>\nBatavia is the county seat.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How many towns and villages are in Clermont County?<\/strong><br \/>\nTwo cities (Milford, Loveland) and nine villages, plus ten census-designated places and several unincorporated communities.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What ZIP codes are in Clermont County?<\/strong><br \/>\nZip codes include 45103 (Batavia), 45150 (Milford), 45140 (Loveland), 45102 (Amelia), 45106 (Bethel), 45157 (New Richmond) and 45176 (Williamsburg), among others.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why is Clermont County home to a U.S. president&#8217;s birthplace?<\/strong><br \/>\nUlysses S.
