Bay View, Ohio

Bay View fell from 632 to 608 between 2010 and 2020. These are the recorded population figures Wikidata holds for this place, reached through the Geographic Names Information System number this page is keyed on rather than by name, so they belong to this place and not to another of the same name. Most are census counts, but not all are: an early figure may be a founding or settlement estimate. The change column is computed, and is left blank where more than 20 years separate a figure from the one before it, because a gap that long is not a change between two counts.

The county history of 1916 has no passage naming this settlement, which was common for the smaller places. Its township is covered in full.

Museums hold 3,334 specimens collected within 10 miles of Bay View between 1860 and 1975: 1,839 Animalia, 1,203 Plantae, 254 Fungi, 30 Chromista, 6 Protozoa, 2 Unrecorded. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A. D. Selby, A. F. Satterthwait, A. J. Eames and others. Each is a physical object with a catalogue number, and each entry opens the museum's record. This is what was collected and kept, not a survey of what lives here - nothing can be concluded from a species being absent.

The federal mineral resources record lists 5 workings within 5 miles of Bay View: 4 past producers, 1 producer. 1 still produces. What was taken out: Gypsum-Anhydrite. Distance is straight-line from the map coordinates, so a quarry counted here may appear on a neighbouring settlement's page as well.

Every working recorded in Erie County

The National Weather Service names Bay View in 6 storm reports between 1998 and 2017: 3 thunderstorm wind, 1 storm surge/tide, 1 funnel cloud, 1 hail. No death or injury is recorded in these reports. Each account below is quoted exactly as the forecast office filed it, from the NOAA Storm Events Database, and each date opens the federal record of that event.
