Hartville, Ohio
Hazard Data Summary
Threat Summary
Hartville faces a critical safety risk due to high toxic levels nearby. The Canton Wood Products site is only 4.6 miles away and contains dangerous hazardous substances. These chemicals can leak into the air you breathe or the water you drink. Because this area has thirteen industrial sites within ten miles, pollution builds up over time. This makes it unsafe for children to play in dirt or drink unfiltered well water without checking for hidden poisons that cause long-term sickness.
