Formed out of Columbia and Sycamore Townships, Silverton had its beginnings in the post-Revolutionary War land grants. In 1809 David Mosner opened a general store at the crossroads of Plainfield Pike and Montgomery Road. Silverton grew rapidly over the last several decaded, attaining city status in 1961 with a population exceeding 5,500.
Silverton today is a community of rich diversity in the heart of a major metropolitan area. Its location northeast of Cincinnati along I-71 and Montgomery Road (SR 22) provides residents with easy access to a wealth of recreational and cultural amenities. Homeowners enjoy living in stable, established neighborhoods of historic homes with tree canopies served by a mix of retail and service businesses. The spirit of volunteerism is alive and well as demonstrated by a number of community organizations, including the Silverton Block Watch Association (Ohio's largest), the Play Field Mother's Club, the Silverton Sweet Pea Society and Community Improvement Corporation of Silverton, the Silverton Housing Council, and the newly formed Business Chamber of Commerce. In short, Silverton is a great place to do business and call home.
