Directory Available for Hocking County Rural Address IDs

Copies of the Hocking County rural address directory are $1 each at the commissioners’ office. Project Engineer James Page said the directory helps revise records to the new numbering system, completed this month after starting in February 1975. About 5,700 homes were numbered at a cost near $30,000, with much funded by CETA. The system aids emergency vehicles, utilities, and law enforcement, with numbers increasing west to east and north to south. Any out of sequence or similar issues should be reported to the county engineer's office.
