Higginsport, OH population, income and ZIP codes

Higginsport village is a very small community in Ohio, with 374 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #962 of 1,265 ranked by population — larger than 23% of them. The median age here is 35.9 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Higginsport village earn a median of $50,694 a year, 35.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 23% 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 35.4% 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 Higginsport village is valued at $96,400, 68.2% below the national figure and 43% below the $168,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $731 a month, 48% below the national figure, or roughly $8,772 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17.3% 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 1.9×, 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. 50.9% 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.
