The quaint village feeling of the shops and restaurants along Montgomery Road near Cooper Road in the heart of the village (now a city) has been carried on by the recent building of large modern homes in the area near the downtown shops that carry on the same colonial character. Builders have recently begun to tear down smaller homes and build these large new homes in the traditional village style, but with amenities like three-car garages. Montgomery is only about five square miles in size. In the downtown heritage district, 8 of the 33 landmark buildings are on the National Register for Historic Places.
The community of about 10,000 comes out to celebrate the Fourth of July each year in a big way! There is a morning parade leading to Montgomery Park where a festival culminates in the five-year old T-ball championship game. Other festivals that close down Montgomery Road include the celebration of the French holiday, Bastille Day, also in July--in conjunction with the Montgomery's sister city of Neuilly-Plaisance, a suburb of Paris, France. Then later in September there is a huge art show on Sunday afternoon. Artisans from near and far come to show and sell their wares.
There is a newer community pool on Hopewell Road near the new fire station and intersection of Montgomery Road. Montgomery is a great family community with its array of six parks offering walking/jogging trails and gazebos for picnicking (Pioneer Park), a clubhouse you can rent for social events (Dulle Park), free tennis courts (at multiple locations), and even a fishing pond and playground (Swaim Park).

You will notice that there are virtually no high rise buildings in the city. Except for Bethesda North Hospital and the Ohio National Building next to I-71 at Pfeiffer Road, everything remains in character and even business signage is strictly regulated to keep the charming character intact. This is one of the few communities where a lot to build a house must be at least a "builder's half acre" (100x200) and many are larger.
Montgomery is just minutes from Kenwood Towne Center Mall and its close proximity to I-71, I-275, and Ronald Reagan Cross County Highway make it a favorite for professionals that need to get to the hospitals or downtown easily and quickly.
This is a great suburb in which to find roomy housing on pretty lots with trees. Older neighborhoods feature sprawling ranches or four bedrooms two stories (The Winds) or even newer, larger versions (Swaim Field). More glamorous housing can be found in The Reserve, once a Home-a-Rama site or Hartford Hill. You might even find some celebrities, like baseball players, as your neighbors!
