Cheviot city, OH in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Cheviot city is a mid-size town in Ohio, with 8,655 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #206 of 1,265 ranked by population — larger than 83% of them. The median age here is 32.8 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Cheviot city earn a median of $54,654 a year, 30.4% below the national figure of $78,538 and 18% below the $66,250 median for the 689 Ohio 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 18.4% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Cheviot city is valued at $137,900, 54.5% below the national figure and 18% below the $168,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $878 a month, 37.6% below the national figure, or roughly $10,536 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19.3% 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 2.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 53.8% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
