History

In 2001, Dominion Homes began building a housing development in an unincorporated area of Scioto Township, Pickaway County, Ohio. The development would consist of two parts, a traditional housing development on the southern end and the northern end would be freestanding condominiums. Each area would be governed by a homeowner association and would be under the jurisdiction of Scioto Township.

The area is served by the Orient post office.

The area's public school district is the Teays Valley Local School District. Students attend South Bloomfield Elementary (K-5) in South Bloomfield, West Middle School (6-8) in Commercial Point, and Teays Valley High School (9-12) in Ashville.[3]
