Villa Hills city, KY in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Villa Hills city is a mid-size town in Kentucky, with 7,378 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #63 of 554 ranked by population — larger than 88% of them. The median age here is 46.9 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in Villa Hills city earn a median of $108,750 a year, 38.5% above the national figure of $78,538 and 96% above the $55,469 median for the 246 Kentucky cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 3.4% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Villa Hills city is valued at $339,800, 12% above the national figure and 116% above the $157,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,144 a month, 18.6% below the national figure, or roughly $13,728 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 12.6% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.1×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 92.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
