Independence blends everyday ease with metropolitan access and a strong sense of community. Set in Kenton County, the city offers quick drives to Covington, Erlanger, and downtown Cincinnati for major employers, concerts, and pro sports. At home, residents gather for the City of Independence festivals like the Independence Celebration and the winter Christmas Walk, browse the seasonal farmers market, and make the most of ballfields, splash pads, and walking paths across neighborhood parks and nearby green spaces.
Families are served by the Kenton County School District, with local campuses such as Simon Kenton High School and Summit View Academy recognized for strong academics, career pathways, and spirited community support. Lifelong learners tap the Kenton County Public Library’s Independence branch for maker programs, story times, and study space.
Weekends might mean disc golf and wooded trails at Lincoln Ridge Park or tee times at the Kenton County Golf Courses, offering 54 holes across Fox Run, Pioneer, and the Willows. Daily life hums along Madison Pike with local coffee spots, family-owned restaurants, and youth sports, while new-construction cul-de-sacs and homes on larger lots give buyers plenty of choice and room to grow.
