Hamilton Township is listed as one of the Top 42 Communities.

In Ohio, the township predates our state government. As the Ohio Territory became populated, it was only natural that the township would become the basic unit of local government.

Hamilton Township is one of the original four townships created when Warren County was divided in May, 1803. By June, 1818, the present boundaries of the township were permanently established.

Hamilton Township is located in south central Warren County, Ohio. In the shape of a rectangle, Hamilton Township is about six and one-half miles from north to south, and five and one-half miles from east to west, comprising an area of 34.4 square miles. Hamilton Township is bounded on the north and west by the Little Miami State and National Scenic River, on the east by Harlan and Salem townships, and on the south by Clermont County, Ohio.
