In 1996, Trotwood merged with the surrounding Madison Township. This merger resulted in the creation of a Trotwood neighborhood (Townview) that is completely surrounded by the City of Dayton. Several smaller sections are attached to Trotwood by only a roadway or a small strip of land.

The merger also added a large rural area to this suburban community consisting of farms, golf courses, and large rural estates.

Wolf Creek, a tributary of the Miami River, runs through Trotwood providing fishing and many scenic areas. Also along Wolf Creek is the only state park in Montgomery County. The 3,000 acre Sycamore Woods State Park offers horseback riding, hiking, hunting, and Grupe camping.
