Walnut Creek Water Co. has 425 service connections serving 1,270 people. Office: 330-763-3621 (SDWIS).

EPA modeled the service boundary of Walnut Creek Water Co. (random forest) rather than drawing it from the utility's map, so its edges are approximate.

Bills, 2023: a household using 5,000 gallons a month paid about $477 a year for water ($40 a month; $360 at 2,500 gallons, $711 at 8,000) and about $662 a year for sewer (Ohio EPA rate survey, inside-city rates).

Wells: EPA lists 3 active wells. ODNR well logs locate 3 public-supply wells inside Walnut Creek Water Co.'s wellhead protection zone, 45 to 302 ft deep, in sandstone. Zoom in to see them as dots.

Estimated, not measured. No rain gauge has ever stood inside 44687 (Walnut Creek Township and Walnut Creek), so every figure here is worked out from the gauges around it - the nearest ones weighted most. Treat them as close estimates rather than readings.

48,725 days of records, 1893-01-01 to 2026-10-29. Source: NOAA NCEI GHCN-Daily, 3,240 gauges in and around Ohio. A day is "gauged" when a gauge standing inside the boundary reported it, and the value is the mean of those gauges. Otherwise it is interpolated by inverse distance from every gauge reporting within 50 miles. Nothing is carried forward, back-filled or smoothed. Against NOAA nClimDiv county monthly precipitation over 136,848 complete county-months (checked 2026-10-31): correlation 0.9515, median absolute difference 0.217 in a month. Built 2026-10-31 from the Cracked Buckeye precipitation archive. Snow is the softer number — snowfall is measured by hand with a ruler, no agency publishes a gridded county snowfall series, and blowing snow defeats every observer.
