Regional context, not property-specific evidence. The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 18 fires within 5 miles of College Hill between 2005 and 2020, burning about 15 acres in total. None started naturally. 3 were recorded as arson. Distance is straight-line from the map coordinates, so a fire counted here may appear on a neighbouring settlement's page as well.

The most recent of them, most recent first, with the day each was reported and the service that recorded it.

Settlements close enough to share some of these fires:

• Nunda
• Jelloway
• Four Corners
• Amity
• Berger
• North Liberty

Every fire recorded in Knox County

Regional context, not property-specific evidence. Museums hold 186 specimens collected within 10 miles of College Hill between 1837 and 1974: 177 Animalia, 6 Fungi, 3 Plantae. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by C F WALKER, Condit, J. M. (John M.), Crunkilton, R. (Ron) & Crunkilton, L. (Lila) 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.
