June 16, 201610 yr How is it possible that SIX people on the same street in a subdivision in Villa Hills die of cancer? How has Northern Kentucky's Board of Health done very little at best, nothing at worst, regarding the extremely high number of cancer deaths in all of NKY? This isn't bad luck. This is either, A. Utilities, B. Water/Sewage, or C. Construction Materials. I have no standing in this, so I can't bring much action beyond this post. This is a joke.
June 16, 201610 yr Author I have no idea, but possibly Radon? Great question. It isn't being investigated from what I've been told.
June 16, 201610 yr Great question. It isn't being investigated from what I've been told. We had our house tested for it before we bought it recently and it failed the test. We had a system put in by the previous owners.
June 16, 201610 yr Is the NKY cancer rate abnormally high when compared to the State, Region or Nation?
June 16, 201610 yr Is the NKY cancer rate abnormally high when compared to the State, Region or Nation?I have no idea, but it's definitely hit a LOT of people I know!
June 16, 201610 yr Author I have no idea, but it's definitely hit a LOT of people I know! NewCath alone has lost way too many mothers and alum from cancer. We can't be an anomaly.
June 16, 201610 yr I would want more details before jumping to any conclusions that it might be geographic. While it would appear high, I would also think there are a number of other factors to be considered. No ?

June 16, 201610 yr CDC - Cancer Rates by U.S. State Cancer-Rates.info The only state that appears to have a higher cancer rate than us is Louisiana (DC does too, just so I include that).
