Campbell County sits east of Kenton County along the Ohio and Licking rivers, including Newport, Alexandria, and Cold Spring.
Campbell County stretches 25 miles from Newport's Ohio River entertainment district to the rural farmland south of Alexandria, creating a dramatic north-to-south transition from urban to agricultural.

Campbell County: 25 Miles From River to Farm
Campbell County is shaped like a long rectangle running from the Ohio River south through 25 miles of increasingly rural terrain. The northern end — Newport, Bellevue, Dayton — is dense, urban, and sits right across the river from downtown Cincinnati. Newport's Levee entertainment district and aquarium have driven revitalization that is spilling into surrounding neighborhoods, creating infill clearing demand on vacant lots that have been overgrown for decades. South of the river cities, Fort Thomas occupies a ridgeline where the U.S. Army's former military reservation left behind a distinctive neighborhood of large wooded lots and historic officers' quarters. Further south, Cold Spring and Highland Heights are conventional suburbs. And at the bottom of the county, Alexandria and Grants Lick are farm country — rolling pasture, wooded creek bottoms, and the kind of rural acreage that generates steady clearing work. EarthWorx covers the entire stretch from our Demossville base, adapting approach and equipment to each zone.
Newport's revitalization has reached the point where investors and developers are acquiring neglected parcels in neighborhoods like East Row, Clifton, and the areas south of the Levee for new construction and renovation. These lots are small — often 30 feet wide — and overgrown with 20+ years of unchecked vegetation including ailanthus, paulownia, and the omnipresent bush honeysuckle. Access is typically through a narrow gap between existing structures or from an alley. We bring our compact mulching equipment in through these tight approaches and clear the lot to ground level, often completing a Newport lot in half a day. The mulch left behind stabilizes the soil until the developer is ready to excavate for foundations.
Fort Thomas is unique in our service area. The former Fort Thomas Military Reservation — now the Midway neighborhood — features large lots with mature hardwood canopy that has been growing since the Army decommissioned the post in the 1960s. Homeowners in Fort Thomas deal with overcrowded canopy, dead standing ash killed by emerald ash borer, and an invasive understory that has overtaken the formerly manicured grounds. We provide selective thinning and understory clearing that respects the historic character of the neighborhood while addressing safety concerns from dead timber and visibility issues from overgrown brush. The terrain in Fort Thomas is hilly — the military chose the ridgeline for its defensive advantage — and our tracked equipment handles the grades between the hilltop homes and the ravines that bound the neighborhood.
Southern Campbell County around Alexandria, Grants Lick, and the communities along US-27 is genuinely rural. Cattle farms, tobacco acreage (some still active), and wooded creek bottoms along the Licking River create clearing needs that mirror what we do in Grant County and rural Kenton County — fence row maintenance, pasture reclamation, driveway clearing, and property management on multi-acre tracts. The Licking River bottoms in particular generate storm cleanup demand when spring flooding deposits debris and knocks trees into pastures. We clear the full length of Campbell County — adapting from Newport's urban constraints to Alexandria's rural scale — all within a 30-40 minute drive from our Demossville base.
