Cheshire

Tucked into Gallia County in southeastern Ohio, this small unincorporated community has a population of 95 residents spread across 50 housing units. Owner-occupied homes account for 74.0% of the housing stock, reflecting a community where most households own rather than rent. With a median household income of $53,750, the area sits at a modest economic level typical of rural Appalachian Ohio. Nearly all working residents commute out for employment, as only 2.0% of workers report working from home. The community lies along the Ohio River, and its small scale means daily life depends heavily on nearby towns and regional employment centers for goods, services, and jobs. Cheshire has drawn some outside attention over the years due to its proximity to industrial facilities, but Census figures simply show a quiet, predominantly owner-occupied rural settlement where most households support themselves through traditional commuter employment rather than remote work or local industry.
