Introduction
The City of Oberlin, most notable as home to Oberlin College and associated with the Burned-over District of Western New York though located in Ohio, has a significant history in terms of the promotion of feminism and related dynamics.
Oberlin College
The chief feature of the City of Oberlin, Lorain County, Ohio, is the presence of Oberlin College, often identified as relatively elite and comparable to related liberal arts institutions such as Middlebury College in the Town of Middlebury, Addison County, Vermont.
Amenities
As a college town, Oberlin does not maintain a significant number of amenities not related to the college itself. However, the southern side of the city has a historical marker on the City of Oberlin and the Underground Railroad. Closer to the Oberlin College campus are the Tappan Square, the Allen Memorial Art Museum, and the Hotel at Oberlin.
