Wetherington CDP, OH in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Wetherington CDP is a small town in Ohio, with 1,317 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #606 of 1,265 ranked by population — larger than 52% of them. The median age here is 55.7 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 Wetherington CDP earn a median of $196,167 a year, 149.8% above the national figure of $78,538 and 196% above 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 6.8% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Wetherington CDP is valued at $607,300, 100.2% above the national figure and 260% above the $168,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,431 a month, 1.8% above the national figure, or roughly $17,172 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 8.8% 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 3.1×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 91.1% 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.
A median age of 55.7 puts Wetherington 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.
