Our Story
Welcome to The Westside Cincy!
I’m Molly Thoms - a mom of five, a local Realtor, and someone who was born in Cincinnati, raised in N. KY, and came to know and love this corner of Cincinnati. My husband Dan and I live and work here, and over the years we’ve discovered something special: the Westside is full of kind, hardworking people who value honesty and commitment to one another.
We know that when neighbors connect, families thrive, businesses grow, and the whole Westside gets stronger.
That’s why we started The Westside Cincy.
What began as small ways to bring people together through a local moms’ group, turned into a yearly holiday yard contest, and some networking events - has grown into a community movement. The Westside Cincy is where you’ll find neighbors supporting neighbors, businesses collaborating instead of competing, and families finding resources and friendships that make life a little lighter.
💡 A quick note: The Westside Cincy is not a nonprofit organization - it’s a passion project fueled by our heart for service and our work in real estate. Through Team Thoms (our real estate business), we get to help families buy, sell, and invest right here on the Westside. The Westside Cincy gives us a way to give back, connect people, and create spaces where everyone feels welcome.
From Business Connect to the Holiday Yard of the Week Contest, from family resources to everyday encouragement, this site is a little hub of all the things that make our community so special.
Thanks for being here. Whether you’re a neighbor, a local business, or just someone who loves the Westside as much as we do you’re part of the story.
Let’s keep building it together.
💙 Molly (& Dan)
