Northern Hills is a small residential community lined with long-standing single-family homes, verdant lawns, and paved sidewalks. Residents appreciate the area’s affordable housing, tight-knit community, and family-friendly atmosphere. Northern Hills neighbors Miami Golf Club and State Route 49. This peaceful suburb sits approximately five miles northwest of Downtown Dayton, so although the neighborhood boasts a secluded, small-town feel, it’s a quick drive from Dayton’s buzzing commercial center. Dayton offers a variety of local and chain dining and shopping options, but for more big-city amenities, residents of Northern Hills can take an hour drive south towards Cincinnati.
