Rittman city, OH in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Rittman city is a mid-size town in Ohio, with 6,033 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #265 of 1,265 ranked by population — larger than 79% of them. The median age here is 36.2 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Rittman city earn a median of $64,492 a year, 17.9% below the national figure of $78,538 and 3% below 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 12.3% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Rittman city is valued at $153,200, 49.5% below the national figure and 9% below the $168,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $749 a month, 46.7% below the national figure, or roughly $8,988 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 13.9% 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. 74.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
