Delhi Township, Hamilton County, Ohio

Delhi Township is a township of Hamilton County, Ohio, located southwest of Cincinnati, Ohio. As of the 2000 U.S. Census, the total population is 30,104. The area is called Delhi Hills by most residents, due to the nature of the landscape. The rolling hills, and some steep hillsides are caused by its location: the township covers the slopes leading down to the Ohio River floodplain, and its landscape is cut by a number of ravines caused by streams that make the descent.
The township is governed by a three-member board of trustees, who are elected in November of odd-numbered years to a four-year term beginning on the following January 1. Two are elected in the year after the presidential election and one is elected in the year before it. There is also an elected township clerk, who serves a four-year term beginning on April 1 of the year after the election, which is held in November of the year before the presidential election. Vacancies in the clerkship or on the board of trustees are filled by the remaining trustees.
The area is largely a residential suburb of Cincinnati, but the College of Mount St. Joseph is located here.
