Summary[edit]

Description

Burlington is a census-designated place (CDP) in Lawrence County, Ohio, United States. The population was 2,794 at the 2000 census. Burlington is a part of the Huntington-Ashland, WV-KY-OH, Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA). As of the 2000 census, the MSA had a population of 288,649. The community is situated between the villages of South Point and Chesapeake. Its other neighbor is Huntington, West Virginia, which lies across the Ohio River; it is connected via the West Huntington Bridge. Burlington was once the leading community of Lawrence County, being the first county seat and the location of the county's first post office.

Burlington is Lawrence County's largest center of consumer retail commerce, with many major retail outlets, such as Walmart, Sam's Club, K-Mart closed, Goodwill, Tractor Supply and Lowe's. Its close and convenient proximity to Interstate 64, as well as its direct connection to the cites of Ironton; Huntington, West Virginia; and Ashland, Kentucky, via U.S. Route 52 has made it one of the largest consumer retail traffic choices in the metropolitan area. Burlington is closely affiliated with its neighbor, the village of South Point. Both communities share the same postal zip code 45680, school district (South Point Local School District), and many other public utilities. Within this community partnership, Burlington maintains its own elementary school, volunteer fire department, and also hosts the county’s senior citizens center.
