Ashland is the Economic Hub of Greater Ashland County. The Ashland area continues steady population and economic
growth. Ashland County enjoys a diverse economy led by world-class corporate, industrial, healthcare, tourism and
educational sectors. Cultural institutions and activities contribute to a quality of life envied throughout Ohio.
Dominant media influence is derived from nearby Cleveland, Columbus, and Mansfield. Ashland is located within the
Cleveland DMA (Nielsen Designated Market Area). Therefore, local television, radio and print media tend to be
overshadowed and fragmented by dominant Cleveland media outlets. Additionally, close proximity to Columbus,
Mansfield, and Akron adds to an already splintered media landscape.
The fragmentation and dilution of other media coupled with significant and steady increases in traffic on roadways has
cemented Lind Outdoor as the dominant mass medium in the Ashland County market area. Lind billboards deliver all of Ashland County for a fraction of the cost of other media outlets.
