West Logan CDP, OH in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
West Logan CDP is a very small community in Ohio, with 537 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #867 of 1,265 ranked by population — larger than 31% of them. The median age here is 55.5 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 West Logan CDP earn a median of $27,898 a year, 64.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 58% below the $66,250 median for the 689 Ohio cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 22.5% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.
The typical owner-occupied home in West Logan CDP is valued at $68,100, 77.6% below the national figure and 60% below the $168,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $618 a month, 56% below the national figure, or roughly $7,416 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 26.6% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. 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. 49.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. 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.
A median age of 55.5 puts West Logan CDP well into retirement-weighted territory, which pulls median household income down even where household wealth is high, because retirement draws are counted differently from wages. With 537 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare West Logan CDP against its county rather than against national figures.
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.
