Elida village, OH in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Elida village is a small town in Ohio, with 2,017 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #489 of 1,265 ranked by population — larger than 61% of them. The median age here is 39.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. 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 Elida village earn a median of $74,798 a year, 4.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and 13% above 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 4.9% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Elida village is valued at $206,600, 31.9% below the national figure and 23% above the $168,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,175 a month, 16.4% below the national figure, or roughly $14,100 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.9% 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 2.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 78.8% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
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.
