Fairfax

Less than 10 miles east of Cincinnati on U.S. 50 lies the village of Fairfax, population 1,700. The small community proudly maintains its own police department, public works and recreation departments and is a member of the Little Miami Joint Fire District. Its recreation department sponsors events throughout the year, including summer concerts in the park and Light Up Fairfax. Among its landmarks is the historic Frisch’s Mainliner restaurant, the first year-round drive-through in the region, and the Ferris Memorial Building, which now houses an art gallery.
