MONROEVILLE, OHIO
"The Best Little Town by A Dam Site"
Monroeville Ohio is located along the banks of the Huron River in
North West Huron County. Twenty minutes south of Sandusky and the
Lake Erie Islands on State Route 20, we are approximately 8 miles South
of the Ohio Turnpike Exit 118.
With a population of 1,500, locating your family or company to
Monroeville will assure a peaceful, friendly, rural life-style where
local residents exhibit a responsible work ethic, which often seems
absent from large urban communities.
Our smaller local schools provide superior academic and extra curricular
opportunities for students and their families who find themselves very
involved and on a first-name basis with the majority of the staff and
students alike.
