In 1852 William Whitney platted the Village of Kipton around the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern railroad depot. Originally named Binghamton, when the Post Office and Train Station changed their name to Kipton, the Villagers took that name by common consent. Kipton was a thriving community until the railroad was abandoned in 1976. The population as of the 2020 census was 207.

Downtown Kipton boasts the highest point of elevation in Lorain County at 857 feet above sea level.
