Why I Love Living In Heath Ohio 3.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 23, 2018) Heath is a town in Licking County, Ohio. It lies at the convergence point of two tributaries of the Licking River. It is a low altitude location, with mild to warm weather all year.


Heath sends out no holiday brochures. Yet, it is the perfect destination for a quiet vacation ...Read More or life. Its picturesque landscape is a sight for sore eyes. Its smooth, thrumming offers a familiar, soothing comfort. A peaceful, quiet existence is everyone’s dream. I wanted an obscure little village with slow routines and no interruptions. I found and fell in love with Heath, three years ago. No other town offers so many delightful options for simple living as this southern town.


It is a melting pot of cultures. The interaction of cultures makes for peaceful co-existence. It was easy to mingle and feel quite at home here. I always stare at the endless acres of green. I love to shop in the picturesque, glamorous flower scented villages. There is plenty to keep me occupied and the perfect car to get me where I want to be on time. Welcome to the town of choice for uncomplicated pseudo-urban living. Read Less
