Lake Milton CDP, OH in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Lake Milton CDP is a very small community in Ohio, with 533 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #873 of 1,265 ranked by population — larger than 31% of them. The median age here is 47.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Lake Milton CDP earn a median of $94,000 a year, 19.7% above the national figure of $78,538 and 42% 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 8.1% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Lake Milton CDP is valued at $391,200, 28.9% above the national figure and 132% above the $168,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $817 a month, 41.9% below the national figure, or roughly $9,804 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 10.4% 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 4.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 87.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. 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.
