Uhrichsville, OH Noise Levels
Is Uhrichsville, OH noisy?
Uhrichsville, OH's 70-79.9 dB(A) band spans one of HUD's zone boundaries, so the honest answer is a range: somewhere between "Normally Unacceptable" (65-75 dB(A)) and "Unacceptable" (above 75 dB(A)), not one clean verdict. Road traffic drives that number here, not the other two sources. That figure is sampled at one coordinate, the Census Bureau's own internal point for Uhrichsville, not a street-by-street survey of the whole place.
