Nestled between Cincinnati and Dayton, Middletown combines historical significance with affordable living options for those seeking apartments. Originally established in 1802 by Stephen Vail Jr., this historic city grew significantly when the American Rolling Mill Company (ARMCO) opened in 1900. Today, Middletown offers budget-friendly housing, with one-bedroom apartments averaging $906 per month, compared to Ohio's state average of $1,055.
Located 29 miles northeast of Cincinnati and 20 miles southwest of Dayton, Middletown provides convenient access to both cities. The community spans parts of Butler and Warren counties across 26 square miles. Residents have access to higher education at Miami University's regional campus, while local attractions include the historic South Main Street District and Canal Museum, which highlights the city's Miami and Erie Canal heritage. With Cleveland-Cliffs (formerly AK Steel) maintaining operations in the area and easy access to Interstate 75, Middletown balances industrial roots with contemporary living at prices below nearby metropolitan areas.
