Metamora village, OH in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Metamora village is a very small community in Ohio, with 608 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #822 of 1,265 ranked by population — larger than 35% of them. The median age here is 37 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 Metamora village earn a median of $79,167 a year, essentially level with the national figure of $78,538 and 19% above 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 6.3% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Metamora village is valued at $153,700, 49.3% below the national figure and 9% below the $168,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $925 a month, 34.2% below the national figure, or roughly $11,100 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 14% 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. 81.9% 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. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
