Home

Founded in 1805, Fairfield Township is located in northeastern Columbiana County, Ohio and boasts an exceptional blend of scenic rural community with the convenience of easy access to nearby suburban and urban areas. Township wide zoning has been present since 1993 and has allowed the community to flourish with commercial and industrial enterprise while maintaining the bucolic residential and rural areas that serve as the foundation of the region.

Located midway between Cleveland, Ohio and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Fairfield Township is accessed by a number of state highways and Turnpike systems that intersect the region. Township families are further served by two excellent educational systems - the Columbiana Exempted Village School District and the Crestview Local School District, respectively. Rounding out the region's appeal is the Beaver Creek State Park and a variety of activities and attractions just minutes away.

Fairfield Township welcomes active participation of township residents and cordially invites any resident or other interested party to attend regularly scheduled Township meetings.
