About Spring Valley

Spring Valley was founded in 1844 at the crossroads of two early transportation routes—the Cincinnati-Xenia Pike and the Little Miami Railroad. Built on a slope rising from the banks of the Little Miami River, Spring Valley benefits from many natural springs which allowed the founders to establish an agricultural and processing center for the surrounding area. Although some of the village’s early structures have been lost or altered, architectural intrusion has been minimal. The Little Miami Railroad stopped operations and has been converted to the Little Miami Scenic Bike Path. In 1954, State Route 42 was re-routed to bypass Main Street’s steep hill, allowing Spring Valley to retain the quiet character of a nineteenth century community.
