Mount Vernon Reviews
Rating 3.76 out of 5 62 reviews
Mount Vernon is a small country town, Home of Mount Vernon Nazarene University and Kenyon College. It has small town charm and has amazing bike trails alongside the Kokosing River. It has many shops and restaurants. In the fall the town looks so gorgeous with all of the trees that change colors during the season.
I grew up in Mount Vernon and have fond memories of my childhood. The city is making changes to the overall scenery to make it a more attractive place to visit or live, but we do have major drug, homeless, and diversity intolerance (race, gender, lgbtq+) issues here. I wish this city was more progressive politically and socially.
Overall, it's a fine place to live. There's not much diversity, the only place of worship is churches. There are some nice shops downtown, but most of them don't stay in business. Some events such as the farmers market and first friday are pretty fun.
