Cincinnati / Harrison
Harrison is about 17 miles from the Census center point for Cincinnati in a straight line and covers 5.341 square miles of land (Census 2024 Gazetteer internal points and land area, https://www2.census.gov/geo/docs/maps-data/data/gazetteer/2024_Gazetteer/, checked 2026-10-19).
Harrison has 13,084 residents (give or take 70) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B01003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B01003?g=160XX00US3933838, checked 2026-10-19), about 2,450 people per square mile.
Of the 4,994 occupied homes in Harrison, 34% heat with natural gas, 1% with heating oil, 65% with electricity and 1% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US3933838, checked 2026-10-19).
Harrison has about the Hamilton County oil share of 1% and 30 points more electric heat than the county's 35% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US39061, checked 2026-10-19).
Electricity already heats 65% of Harrison homes, ahead of gas at 34%, and a home on electric baseboard sees the biggest bill change from a heat pump because it replaces resistance heat one for one.
The median Harrison home was built in 1992 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US3933838, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 6 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US3933838, checked 2026-10-19).
Harrison has 5,317 housing units, 7% built before 1940 and 34% before 1980, with 42% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US3933838, checked 2026-10-19).
65% of Harrison homes are single-family detached, 4% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 19% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US3933838, checked 2026-10-19).
25% of Harrison homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US3933838, checked 2026-10-19), so beside the 65% detached houses there is a real share of jobs where the landlord, not the resident, signs the quote.

That 5F figure is the Hamilton County cold-day number a Harrison heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 5F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Harrison home has 6 rooms and was built around 1992, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
