Why Bradford homes need a local read

Bradford is the northernmost incorporated community in White County, west of U.S. Highway 67 just south of the Jackson County line.

History: Grew around the Bradford Allen Station depot after the Cairo and Fulton Railroad built to the White River at Newport in 1872; incorporated September 19, 1893.

Setting: Hills lie north and west of town, while rich White River bottomland lies to the east.

Water, flooding and moisture in Bradford

Water nearby: The White River, which gave Bradford commercial river transport and, until the late 1960s, mussel harvesting.

Flood history: The White River flooded now and then until levees were built, and the Bradford Allen Station depot was built well away from threatening floodwaters.

EPA's Map of Radon Zones places White County in Zone 3 (predicted average indoor levels below 2 pCi/L). EPA notes that homes vary within any zone, so the map does not predict a single house.
