Emergency Biohazard Cleanup Services in Lordstown, OH

Lordstown is a village in southern Trumbull County that began as one of the original survey townships of the Connecticut Western Reserve, laid out and named for Samuel P. Lord.

Lordstown Township incorporated almost entirely as the village of Lordstown in 1975, making the village a rare Ohio example of a whole township becoming a village.

Lordstown is unusually big and rural for a village: it covers about 23.2 square miles but had only 3,332 residents at the 2020 census, a density of about 144 people per square mile.

Lordstown has 1,434 households, and its median age of 49.1 years is notably older than the Ohio average.

Lordstown is best known for the General Motors Lordstown Assembly plant, which built compact cars from 1966 until 2019 and produced more than 16 million vehicles over 52 years.

After Youngstown's steel factories closed, the Lordstown Assembly became the largest industrial employer in the Mahoning Valley.

The shuttered GM plant was bought by Lordstown Motors in November 2019 and then sold to Foxconn in May 2022 for electric vehicle production.

GM and LG Chem's Ultium Cells joint venture built a roughly $2.3 billion, 30 gigawatt-hour electric vehicle battery plant in Lordstown that began production in August 2022, leading locals to rebrand the area as the "Voltage Valley."

Lordstown is also home to the Lordstown Energy Center, a 940-megawatt natural-gas power plant, and a large TJX HomeGoods distribution center.

Children in the village attend the Lordstown Local School District, which operates one elementary school and Lordstown High School.
