About Hiram

Tucked away in the scenic hills of Portage County, Hiram is a quiet, historic community built around Hiram College. Founded in 1850, the liberal arts campus sits right at the center of town, giving the surrounding tree-lined streets a classic college-town feel. The village is also known for its ties to President James A. Garfield, who studied and taught here before taking office. For newcomers, Hiram offers a peaceful, small-town setting with an easy commute to both Akron and Cleveland.
