Covedale is a former village in Hamilton County, Ohio, United States. The main area of the village was annexed by the city of Cincinnati and is now a neighborhood of about 15,000 people in the western part of the city.

History

[edit]

Covedale was annexed by Cincinnati on June 4, 1930.[1][2] Residents of the annexed territory unsuccessfully argued in Common Pleas Court that the annexation date was March 18, 1931.[3][4][5][6] Upon annexation, the village disincorporated and its remaining area reverted to Green Township, with a small fragment going to Delhi Township.

Geography

[edit]

Covedale is located about 6 miles (9.7 km) west of downtown Cincinnati. It is primarily a residential neighborhood of tree lined streets with brick and Tudor-style homes. Commercial areas are mainly centered about Glenway Avenue.

The U.S. Census provides population and demographic data for the area that remains in the townships, Covedale (CDP).
