Ohio Real Estate & Relocation Guide

Bellbrook, Ohio

Population: 7,009

Located in Greene County

The City of Bellbrook was settled in 1816 and was named for one of its founders, Stephen Bell, who helped plat part of what is now the "old village" area. The second part of the city's name undoubtedly refers to the many local waterways including Little Sugarcreek, Sugarcreek and the Little Miami River, which enhance the local scenery.

The city first attained a population of over 5,000 when in 1970, Bellbrook annexed a large part of western Sugarcreek Township. This led to official city status in 1974. Bellbrook's current population is 7,009.

Bellbrook is proud of its well-planned and great new neighborhoods which offer a range of housing from custom built single family homes on large lots to luxury apartment and condominium units. Bellbrook has also been a frontrunner in building new homes in the downtown area which help support the many new restaurants and specialty shops in the old village business district.

Bellbrook also owns the Bellbrook Historic Museum, Winter's Library and over thirty parcels of parkland and open space throughout the community including the charming "turn-of-the-century" Bellbrock Park in the old village, the large playfields at Sackett-Wright Park east of town and the basketball and tennis courts at Petrikis Park.

With a location just outside of Dayton, Bellbrook is the first choice for those desiring to have a little bit of country, while still being within driving distance of work. And Dayton is a city on the move! With recreation, arts and culture at your fingertips, there is seldom the chance to get bored here in Southern Ohio.

Four seasons help keep residents on their toes, and Bellbrook has ensured there is plenty for its resident to do! From skiing to tennis, from golf to hiking, you will find a place to exercise to your heart's content.

Bellbrook is truly a community which combines old-fashioned country charm with the best in modern and efficient city services.
