Columbia Township is one of the twelve townships of Hamilton County, Ohio, U.S. At its founding in 1791, it was among Ohio's largest townships by area, but gradually shrank to one of the smallest by early 1950s due to annexations by the City of Cincinnati, Norwood, Silverton, Fairfax, Indian Hill, Mariemont and others. The 2020 census found 4,446 residents living in the township.
