About Germantown, OH.
Germantown is a small suburb of Dayton, Ohio, in Montgomery County. Originally hometown to Pennsylvania Dutch (or German settlers, due to the change of the German “Deutch” to “Dutch” over the years), it is a small bedroom community that once fueled both a cigar industry and a distillery but which now mostly exists as a comfortable place to live when working in Dayton.
With a population of just under 6,000 people, it has a comfortable and charming atmosphere that is a somewhat small town overall. It is currently the sister city of Marktheidenfeld, Bavaria, Germany, which draws some tourism to the area. Its low-key nature and proximity to Dayton also make it a popular draw for tourists who want a more comfortable and homey place to visit.
