Sinking Spring village, OH in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Sinking Spring village is a very small community in Ohio, with 426 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #926 of 1,265 ranked by population — larger than 26% of them. The median age here is 28.4 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Sinking Spring village earn a median of $105,368 a year, 34.2% above the national figure of $78,538 and 59% 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 8% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Sinking Spring village is valued at $129,400, 57.4% below the national figure and 23% below the $168,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 1.2×, 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. 97.7% 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. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
A median age of 28.4 means a large student or early-career population; income medians in places like this understate household resources, since many residents are supported from outside the address. With 426 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Sinking Spring village against its county rather than against national figures.
The Census withheld gross rent for Sinking Spring village 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.
