In 1818, a Scottish immigrant named John Craig purchased a half section of 320 acres (1.3 km2) of Green Township from Elias Boudinot. He built an inn and tavern on the Harrison Pike. On March 21, 1818, Craig laid out a town which he named after the Cheviot Hills in southern Scotland. He sold lots and growth began.[7]
The town was incorporated as a village in 1901, and a city in 1931. Originally a farming community, today Cheviot is a residential suburb of Cincinnati.
Cheviot is located about 7 miles (11 km) northwest of downtown Cincinnati. According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 1.17 square miles (3.03 km2), all land.[8]
