Rocky Fork Point, Ohio

Rocky Fork Point grew from 639 to 742 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 federal wildfire occurrence database lists 9 fires within 5 miles of Rocky Fork Point between 2003 and 2020, burning about 40 acres in total. None started naturally. 1 was 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:

• Highland Holiday
• Marshall
• South Beach
• Boston

Museums hold 1,493 specimens collected within 10 miles of Rocky Fork Point between 1876 and 1975: 1,013 Animalia, 375 Fungi, 92 Plantae, 10 Protozoa, 3 Unrecorded. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by 14505, 14519, 14521 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 2 workings within 5 miles of Rocky Fork Point: 2 past producers. None of them still produces. What was taken out: Stone, Crushed/Broken, Limestone, General. Distance is straight-line from the map coordinates, so a quarry counted here may appear on a neighbouring settlement's page as well.
