Camp Washington, Cincinnati

Camp Washington is a residential neighborhood located in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA, home to the award-winning Cincinnati chili parlor, Camp Washington Chili. It is located north of Queensgate, east of Fairmount, and west of Clifton and University Heights.

During the U.S.-Mexican War Camp Washington was an important military location, training five-thousand, five-hundred and thirty-six soldiers who went to war.
