Dennison village, OH in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Dennison village is a small town in Ohio, with 2,356 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #455 of 1,265 ranked by population — larger than 64% of them. The median age here is 28.8 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 Dennison village earn a median of $51,949 a year, 33.9% below the national figure of $78,538 and 22% 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 22.8% 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 Dennison village is valued at $95,200, 68.6% below the national figure and 44% below the $168,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $806 a month, 42.7% below the national figure, or roughly $9,672 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.6% 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 1.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 48.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
A median age of 28.8 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.
