Van Wert is a charming small town in rural Ohio. There is a small amount of restaurants and a few local shops, along with some chains. There are some fast food options, chain restaurants, and a small amount of local restaurant/catering options.
I moved to Van Wert the summer before I started 8th grade at Van Wert Middle School. The education I received was terrific for a small town in Northwest Ohio. As for the neighborhood, there are a few spots in town where you will need to keep your belongings under lock and key, otherwise people will steal them. Nevertheless, it is a safe environment to raise a family with quality education. My one recommendation for the town is to invest in more entertainment, as to attract more residents for the long-term.
Van Wert is a small friendly city. The schools are reputed to be good. Healthcare facilities and the hospital are excellent for a small city & comprehesive hospitals are 25-35 miles away. The city is pretty clean & has a low crime rate. Economic development is an opportunity in the making. All 3 major car companies have dealerships here. We have a Walmart SuperCenter, CVS Pharmacy & many restaurents. Most denominations have churches here.
We have civic - service clubs & activities for youth. Two universities have course opportunities here & we have a vocational school. Van Wert County has an active Economic Development facility here. Agriculture is important & training is available. Van Wert is the county seat of Van Wert County. Niswonger Performing Arts Center is a state-of-the-art venue & attracts national intertainers.
