There are a total of six disconnected sections of the city. The southernmost section comprises four smaller sections that are attached solely by annexed roadways and not surrounding properties.

The city is adjacent to Dayton, Kettering, Huber Heights, Wright-Patterson and a small section of Harrison Township in Montgomery County. The city of Beavercreek, Bath Township and Beavercreek Township in Greene County border Riverside on the east.
