Wesleyan Hill

Wesleyan Hill is a down-to-earth northwest Dayton neighborhood with plenty of personality and a strong sense of everyday community. Centered around the winding streets near Wesleyan Road and Gettysburg Avenue, the area is filled with a mix of single-family homes, duplexes, and apartments—making it the kind of place where longtime residents and newcomers cross paths easily.

Families here love having Rosa Parks Early Learning Center and the Miami Valley Child Development Center on Kings Highway right in the neighborhood, offering trusted early-childhood resources just minutes from home. And keeping everyone safe is Dayton Fire Station 16, a familiar neighborhood landmark and friendly presence that adds to Wesleyan Hill’s community feel.

Nature lovers and weekend wanderers are never far from green space thanks to Wesleyan MetroPark, a local go-to for trails, fishing spots, and outdoor fun along Wolf Creek. With places like Adventure Central nearby, it’s easy for kids—and grown-ups—to stay active and connected to the outdoors.

Wesleyan Hill may not be flashy, but that’s part of its charm. It’s real, lived-in, and full of people who care about their neighborhood. With its mix of affordability, green space, and community anchors—from schools to firefighters—it’s a spot with heart, history, and a welcoming vibe that feels unmistakably like home.
