Geography

According to the United States Census Bureau, the village has a total area of 0.18 square miles (0.47 km2), all land.

Ludlow Falls is a part of the Milton-Union School district located in the neighboring West Milton.

Ludlow Creek, a tributary of the Stillwater River, flows through Ludlow Falls. The village's name is derived from the waterfall of the stream located in the village.

There was a railroad line through Ludlow Falls that was built in 1881 from Springfield, Ohio to Indianapolis, Indiana. It was later owned by the New York Central Railroad. There was very little on-line traffic and the line was lightly used by the 1970s. The line was not included in the 1976 makeup of Conrail and the last train ran on March 31, 1976. The tracks were pulled up shortly thereafter.
