Fosters, Ohio

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fosters (sometimes given as Foster) is an unincorporated community in southern Warren County, Ohio straddling the Little Miami River in Deerfield and Hamilton Townships. It is located about two miles southwest of Hopkinsville, two miles west of Maineville, and two miles northeast of Twenty Mile Stand just off Ohio Routes 22/3 known as the 3C Highway. (In the 1960s, the State of Ohio erected a new high bridge over the river that bypassed the community.) The community is in the Kings Local School District and is served by the Maineville post office. The settlement was originally called Foster's Crossing, and had its own post office. It is in the Little Miami telephone exchange. Governor Jeremiah Morrow once lived here.

The Little Miami Bike Trail, which runs from Milford to Spring Valley, runs through the community on the eastern shore of the Little Miami River.
