Morrow, Ohio is a small village in Warren County whose history and identity are closely tied to transportation corridors and waterways. Founded in the mid-19th century along the Little Miami Railroad, Morrow developed at the confluence of the Little Miami River and Todd Fork, a location that earlier supported mills and river commerce. This meeting of river, creek, and rail made Morrow a natural stopping point for settlement and trade, shaping the village’s layout and long-term growth.

The community of Yellow Springs is diverse with an authentic downtown with an eclectic assortment of shops, galleries and restaurants; recreational opportunities at Glen Helen Nature Preserve, John Bryan State Park, and the Little Miami Scenic Trail; and cultural activities within the village itself and at Antioch College.
