Amberley Village
Named for what’s known as the pearl of Sussex in Southern England, the Amberley Village is a serene and peaceful community northeast of Cincinnati. Similarly to its namesake, the small village boasts diverse, majestic homes on large lots, and abundant open, wooded areas. Amberley Village prides itself on providing its residents and businesses with premiere services and active civic involvement. The community muses that it never snows in Amberley because it’s all salted and plowed before the snow even hits the ground. Village Manager Scot Lahrmer says, “The philosophy is to treat our residents as customers. Our residents could choose to live anywhere, but they choose to live here.”
