Lexington village, OH in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Lexington village is a small town in Ohio, with 4,866 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #294 of 1,265 ranked by population — larger than 76% of them. The median age here is 42 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 Lexington village earn a median of $56,068 a year, 28.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 15% below the $66,250 median for the 689 Ohio cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 12.9% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Lexington village is valued at $183,500, 39.5% below the national figure and 9% above the $168,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $756 a month, 46.2% below the national figure, or roughly $9,072 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 16.2% 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 3.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 68.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
