Northwood lies on the western Lake Erie plain near the Maumee River, its level, low-lying terrain placing this Wood County city immediately southeast of Toledo. Though administratively separate, it forms part of the Toledo metropolitan area, shaped by the river corridor and Lake Erie’s shoreline. The wider area is closely linked to Toledo’s glassmaking legacy, which gave the neighbouring city its enduring “Glass City” nickname.
