Montgomery, OH population, income and ZIP codes

Montgomery city is a mid-size town in Ohio, with 10,816 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #173 of 1,265 ranked by population — larger than 86% of them. The median age here is 44.2 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. 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 Montgomery city earn a median of $148,438 a year, 89% above the national figure of $78,538 and 124% above 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 2.7% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Montgomery city is valued at $505,800, 66.7% above the national figure and 200% above the $168,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,507 a month, 7.2% above the national figure, or roughly $18,084 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 12.2% 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 3.4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 88.9% 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. 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.

Every value on this page is published directly by the Census for this area — nothing is modelled or interpolated. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
