Clarksburg, OH population, income and ZIP codes

Clarksburg village is a very small community in Ohio, with 543 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #863 of 1,265 ranked by population — larger than 31% of them. The median age here is 28 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.

Households in Clarksburg village earn a median of $47,727 a year, 39.2% below the national figure of $78,538 and 28% below the $66,250 median for the 689 Ohio cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 29.7% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.

The typical owner-occupied home in Clarksburg village is valued at $117,500, 61.3% below the national figure and 30% below the $168,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,264 a month, 10.1% below the national figure, or roughly $15,168 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 31.8% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is a stretch on median earnings. 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. 45.8% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.

Clarksburg village is the unusual combination of expensive to rent and cheap to buy: rent takes 31.8% of median income while homes cost only 2.5× it. Where that pattern shows up, the gap is normally down to down-payment and credit barriers rather than price. A median age of 28 means a large student or early-career population; income medians in places like this understate household resources, since many residents are supported from outside the address.

Every value on this page is published directly by the Census for this area — nothing is modelled or interpolated. 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.
