Delhi Hills, Ohio

Delhi Hills fell from 5,259 to 5,022 between 2010 and 2020. These are the recorded population figures Wikidata holds for this place, reached through the Geographic Names Information System number this page is keyed on rather than by name, so they belong to this place and not to another of the same name. Most are census counts, but not all are: an early figure may be a founding or settlement estimate. The change column is computed, and is left blank where more than 20 years separate a figure from the one before it, because a gap that long is not a change between two counts.

History of Hamilton County, Ohio, with Illustrations and Biographical Sketches, published 1881 names this settlement in its chapter on Delhi Township. These are the passages that mention it, exactly as the scans read.

Regional context, not property-specific evidence. Museums hold 4,323 specimens collected within 10 miles of Delhi Hills between 1819 and 1975: 1,912 Fungi, 1,410 Animalia, 837 Plantae, 123 Protozoa, 21 Unrecorded, 19 Chromista, 1 Bacteria. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A Schwartz, A. Braun, A. F. Braun and others. Each is a physical object with a catalogue number, and each entry opens the museum's record. This is what was collected and kept, not a survey of what lives here - nothing can be concluded from a species being absent.
