Brookville, Ohio is growing community west of Clayton that has 5,289 citizens (as of the 2000 census). It started as a general store, like many small suburbs of Dayton, established by Warren Estabrook in 1832. In 1874 it was incorporated with a total citizenry of 425 people.
Brookville thrived due mainly to the railroad stop on the line between Dayton and Greenville. The Dayton/Greenville line was completed in 1852 causing business to spring up.
Brookville has recently built a new high school and prides themselves on the education of their youth.
The Brookville Blue Devils are an athletic program to respect in southwest Ohio.
