Troy Ohio, what an amazing town. The perfect size, not too big or too small. The town is full of fun activities, many wonderful restaurants, and is very festive for all seasons. In the summer you can cool off at the local pools, or in the winter you can go ice skating at Hobart, or sledding at the levy! There are many activities, and volunteer opportunities to be involved with, you will never get bored! The people are always friendly, and it is a very safe community. Overall Troy Ohio is a family friendly town who cares about the community and takes into consideration opinions of the people. It is a great place to live. If I could change one thing it would be to have more live events. Even though we do host a few of concerts, and shows, in the summer time I feel as if we should try to maximize the use of our facilities and host more often through out all seasons!
Troy has been my hometown since i was born and let me just say, I am so grateful to have gotten to grow up in a town such as this one. The close knit and involved community that Troy has built is the main reason why this is such an awesome town. With the Strawberry festival, local athletic games with expressive crowds, and the community rallies, Troy shows great support and friendliness to new, and familiar faces. While the community is something very special about this town, so is the appeal in what there is to do locally. The square with all the unique shops, the levee with an incredible view of our dam, and the bike path that leads to the cities north and south of us, Troy has a lot to offer in ideas of how to get active and outside. If you are interested in moving or popping into town, I would highly encourage doing so.
3rd generation Trojan. All my mom's people are from here. I LOVE Troy. Best hometown EVER. Its just big enough, and it's close enough to Dayton if you want more lively entertainment. The Downtown is vibrant with coffee houses, breweries, restaurants, etc. 2 hospitals, one being near downtown. I love the Friday night concerts on the square in the summer. Hobart Arena is a gem. Concerts, ice skating, etc. Numerous parks. Good schools but they need updating. Very little crime and some drugs but some people still keep their door unlocked!!! Friendly town with diverse population.
Only bad thing is that is very little for teens to do other than the Rec. It's also a little pricey to live here, most people who rent, move to Piqua. They also need more public transportation than what's available. I would highly recommend it for families and millinials.
