Avon Lake city, OH in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Avon Lake city is a small city in Ohio, with 25,456 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #60 of 1,265 ranked by population — larger than 95% of them. The median age here is 43.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. 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 Avon Lake city earn a median of $110,174 a year, 40.3% above the national figure of $78,538 and 66% above the $66,250 median for the 689 Ohio cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 3.9% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Avon Lake city is valued at $337,200, 11.1% above the national figure and 100% above the $168,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,500 a month, 6.7% above the national figure, or roughly $18,000 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 16.3% 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. 82.2% 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. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
