Longevity

According to the most recent analysis from the City of Cincinnati, North Avondale and adjacent Paddock Hills have a slightly higher life expectancy than the citywide life expectancy. From data collected from 2007-2015, the life expectancy by combined North Avondale / Paddock Hills is 77.1 years while the overall citywide life expectancy is 76.1 years.

The Longevity series is an ongoing project to record the history and learn from those who have lived in the North Avondale the longest.
