About Prospect

Prospect is a quiet, historic village set along the banks of the Scioto River in Marion County. It offers a relaxed, small-town pace with a close-knit feel, where families send their kids to the Elgin Local School District and neighbors know each other by name. With State Route 4 running right through town, residents enjoy an easy commute north to Marion or south toward Delaware and Columbus while coming home to a peaceful rural setting.
