Willshire village, OH in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Willshire village is a very small community in Ohio, with 409 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #939 of 1,265 ranked by population — larger than 25% of them. The median age here is 38 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Willshire village earn a median of $50,625 a year, 35.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 24% below the $66,250 median for the 689 Ohio cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 16.5% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Willshire village is valued at $72,800, 76% below the national figure and 57% below the $168,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $817 a month, 41.9% below the national figure, or roughly $9,804 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19.4% 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 1.4×, 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. 83.6% 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. 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.

With 409 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Willshire village against its county rather than against national figures.
