Footnotes ...

<1>Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'straight-line' distance. A straight line distance ignores obstructions like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line from Point A (ie- Price Hill) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Price Hill. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 39.1101, Longitude: -84.5758       In this case, the coordinates for Price Hill have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS).
