Willowick, OH population, income and ZIP codes

Willowick city is a mid-size town in Ohio, with 14,182 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #124 of 1,265 ranked by population — larger than 90% of them. The median age here is 42 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Willowick city earn a median of $74,138 a year, 5.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 12% 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 5.3% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Willowick city is valued at $156,100, 48.5% below the national figure and 7% below the $168,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,021 a month, 27.4% below the national figure, or roughly $12,252 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 16.5% 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 2.1×, 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. 78.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
