Located just south of Toledo, Ohio along the Maumee River, the City of Maumee combines the feel of a small town with big-city amenities and employment. The Maumee River was once part of the Wabash-Erie Canal, a waterway that connected Lake Erie with the Ohio River at Evansville, Indiana. The city of Maumee, the site of an important War of 1812 battle, developed in the late 20th century to be a regional economic mecca. Maumee is home to a regional UPS distribution center as well as the headquarters of Dana Corporation, The Andersons home improvement stores and Paramount Health Care Systems. Maumee was once the county seat of Lucas County, but lost that distinction to Toledo in 1854.
Moving to Maumee
Living in Maumee combines easy access to shopping, sports, jobs, healthcare and other amenities in nearby Toledo and Detroit, while still offering the feel of a small, friendly town. Housing in Maumee runs the gamut from large historic homes to apartment rentals to semi-detached condos for rent.

There's really something for every taste and budget in Maumee.
Before getting ready to go apartment hunting, be sure that you're prepared with enough moolah to cover your security deposit and first month's rent and get together the proper renting documents: copies of your ID, letters of reference, your credit score and proof of employment.
