Salem Heights (Hamilton Co.), OH population, income and ZIP codes

Salem Heights CDP (Hamilton County) is a small town in Ohio, with 3,640 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #357 of 1,265 ranked by population — larger than 71% of them. The median age here is 40.2 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Salem Heights CDP (Hamilton County) earn a median of $92,478 a year, 17.7% above the national figure of $78,538 and 40% 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 5.8% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Salem Heights CDP (Hamilton County) is valued at $226,700, 25.3% below the national figure and 35% above the $168,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 91.2% 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.

The Census withheld gross rent for Salem Heights CDP (Hamilton County) because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
