Perry village, OH in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Perry village is a small town in Ohio, with 1,628 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #543 of 1,265 ranked by population — larger than 57% of them. The median age here is 36.9 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 Perry village earn a median of $97,969 a year, 24.7% above the national figure of $78,538 and 48% 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 9% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Perry village is valued at $236,900, 21.9% below the national figure and 41% above the $168,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,056 a month, 24.9% below the national figure, or roughly $12,672 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 12.9% 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 2.4×, 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. 89.8% 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. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. 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.
