The Village of Huntsville is a community of around 450 in north central Logan County, Ohio. This small town is a great place to raise a family in a friendly community. Huntsville real estate is reasonably priced and affordable for anyone looking to live in a safe town full of neighbors, not strangers.
History
Originally, Huntsville became incorporated in December 1865. A rail system was run through town which increased economic development and residential growth and placed increasing amounts of Huntsville real estate on the market.
Geography
The United States Census Bureau noted the village has a total area of 0.30 square miles, all land. It is the northernmost village in the Hunstville, Sollysville and Cherokee combined areas within the Indian Lake Region. The proximity of the Village of Hunstville to nearby lakes and water make it an affordable location for families to own Huntsville homes for those who want to be close to great parks and schools. Despite its small size, the Village of Huntsville lies at the intersection of several highways including State Route 274 (which runs through the village) and State Route 117 on the southern end of Huntsville. U.S. Route 33 passes on the southwest edge of the village with State Routes 366 and 368 located on the eastern ends and north end of the village, respectively. The proximity to several transportation routes provides access to nearby towns and cities for people who wish to take advantage of all they have to offer. Huntsville real estate including properties and land make viable options for any families seeking to move into the area.
Community
Approximately 431 people including 123 families reside in the village as of 2010. Of the 159 households, over 42% had children under the age of 18 living with them. The median age of the village is 35.6 years old signifying a large number of families with younger children (30.9% were under age 18) which builds community life and brings people together. Local activities can be found in Indian Lakes as well as the nearby town of Bellefontaine. Many families choose to purchase Huntsville homes due to its proximity to dining and entertainment options but still maintaining affordability.
Schools
The Huntsville School District was formed around the same time the village was incorporated. Initially there were two school rooms with about 150 students, according to the Logan County Historical Society. Today, students attending school attend Indian Lake School District in nearby Indian Lake. Approximately 1,800 students are served in grades K-12. The district is proud to say they hold an 'Excellent with Distinction' rating by the Ohio Department of Education. Indian Lake Schools support a culture of safety and learning for students while encouraging parents to participate with teachers to make a learning community which supports excellence for students. Many activities are available to participate in such as arts, music, advanced classes for high school students looking to receive additional training for careers or college after graduation and several sports.
