Introduction
Located in the southern portion of the State of Ohio, Route 124 is notable for serving the east-west direction between near the Ohio River to the east and Route 134 in the southern portion of Clinton County to the west. Serving the southern portion of the State of Ohio, a number of villages are covered along the route, many of which are economically distressed. The impoverished areas covered by Route 124 are especially evident in Meigs and surrounding counties in the State of Ohio, often covering east of the long concurrency with Route 32.
Information
Within the State of Ohio, Route 124 is largely associated with the rural and often impoverished communities in the general vicinity of Route 32. However, many of the communities along Route 124 are smaller than the Route 32 communities, with the former often containing rural two-lane stretches largely surrounded by the Appalachian foothills.
