Congratulations Medina residents on being named the third healthiest county in the state!
Medina County once again was named as one of the healthiest counties in the state, according to a national study released on March 30.
The county had the third highest ranking in the study, which was published by the University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.
The study looks at a variety of factors that affect health such as the rate of dying before age 75, education levels, child poverty rates, adult obesity and environmental factors like air quality.

Before you rush to file your taxes today, remember that you actually have three more days to get your forms turned in to the tax man.
Instead of being due on April 15, which is typically the filing deadline, your taxes are due Mon., April 18 this year.
The three bonus days come thanks to Emancipation Day, a little-known Washington, D.C., holiday that celebrates the freeing of slaves in the district.
Emancipation Day falls on Sat., April 16, but it is observed in D.C. on Fri., April 15. That prompted the IRS to extend the tax filing deadline to April 18 this year. Under the tax code, filing deadlines can't fall on Saturdays, Sundays or holidays.
