Middleburg Heights city, OH in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Middleburg Heights city is a mid-size town in Ohio, with 15,817 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #118 of 1,265 ranked by population — larger than 90% of them. The median age here is 48.4 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.
Households in Middleburg Heights city earn a median of $78,324 a year, essentially level with the national figure of $78,538 and 18% 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 4.4% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Middleburg Heights city is valued at $213,100, 29.8% below the national figure and 26% above the $168,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,014 a month, 27.9% below the national figure, or roughly $12,168 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 15.5% 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 2.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 71.6% 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.
