Lynchburg village, OH in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Lynchburg village is a small town in Ohio, with 1,408 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #585 of 1,265 ranked by population — larger than 53% of them. The median age here is 32.7 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 Lynchburg village earn a median of $61,094 a year, 22.2% below the national figure of $78,538 and 8% 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 11.6% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Lynchburg village is valued at $160,900, 47% below the national figure and 5% below the $168,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $840 a month, 40.3% below the national figure, or roughly $10,080 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 16.5% 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 2.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 66.7% 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.
