2016 Map of New Richmond

About this map

The Ohio River forms a massive natural boundary between Campbell County, Kentucky, and Clermont County, Ohio, anchoring a landscape defined by steep river bluffs and narrow creek valleys. Along the Kentucky shore, rural settlements like California, Mentor, and Oneonta follow the river’s path, while higher ground to the west supports Persimmon Grove and Carthage. The distribution of burial grounds, including Saint Josephs Catholic Church Cem and Saint Peter And Paul Cem, suggests a long-established network of parish communities. On the Ohio side, New Richmond occupies a prominent bend in the river, served by roads like Old US Hwy 52. The presence of industrial and utility infrastructure is marked by the Cincinnati Gas and Electric Lake and the former Old Alexandria Reservoir, reflecting the region’s evolving water and energy management requirements in the 21st century.
