High atop one of Cincinnati's most prominent hilltops stands the two-story Greek Revival house where William Howard Taft was born and grew up. Hard work, a good education, and an interest in civic duty made the Taft family outstanding leaders over the years. The environment that shaped Taft's character and philosophy is preserved at the site. The park lies in a humid continental zone with a generally temperate climate. Winters are mildly cold with average temperatures around 48 degrees (F). Summers are hot and humid with an average temperature around 77 degrees (F). Average annual total rainfall is just under 40 inches. Snowfall in the winter is generally light with an average total snowfall of less than 12 inches.
