Knox County, Ohio

Knox Location Map Ohio

Knox County is in the center of Ohio. This place has character. Mount Vernon, the biggest city, feels like stepping back in time. Old-fashioned shops line Main Street. Friendly faces everywhere.

But Knox isn’t stuck in the past. It’s home to Kenyon College, one of the best liberal arts schools around. Students bring fresh energy to the area.

The county’s a mix of rural and small-town life. Farms stretch for miles. Then you’ll hit a quaint village. Amish buggies share the road with cars. It’s an interesting blend. Knox County’s got its quirks too. Only in Knox.
