The Miami Valley, broadly, refers to the land area surrounding the Great Miami River in southwest Ohio, USA, and also includes 
the Little Miami, Mad, and Stillwater Rivers as well. Geographically, it includes Dayton, Springfield, Middletown, 
Hamilton, and other communities.
 
Most commonly, however, it refers to the economic and cultural-social region centered primarily
 on Dayton and the Greater Dayton area, including TV and radio markets.
 
14 counties in Southwestern Ohio are within the drainage basis of the two Miami Rivers. Of course, the tributaries of
 the Great Miami sneak across the Indiana State Line, and drain some of the eastern section of that state, especially
 the Whitewater River, which empties into the Great Miami in southwestern Hamilton County, near the lowest point of 
elevation in Ohio (428 feet).
 
The two rivers are known as the Great Miami and the Little Miami. The Great Miami, true to its name,
 is the larger, draining about 4,000 square miles in Ohio, and another 1300 square miles in Indiana.
 The Little Miami, lying east of its big sister, has a drainage basin of about 2,000 square miles. 
Together the rivers' basins cover almost 6,000 square miles of Ohio's southwestern corner. This is
 about 15 per cent of the total land area of the state, yet 20 percent of the people of Ohio 
live in the Miami Valley.
 
The two valleys stretch northward from the Ohio River for about 100 miles, and average about 
70 miles in width. In the northern section of the valley at Bellefontaine, the state reaches 
its highest elevation (1,548 feet). Bound by the Ohio River on the south, which receives 
water from both Miami Rivers, the valley might be called the Land of the Three Rivers. 
But it isn't - it's just the Miami Valley.
