ZIP code 44439

ZIP 44439 is a very small community in Trumbull County, Ohio, with 482 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1021 of 1,233 ranked by population — larger than 17% of them. The median age here is 31.7 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 ZIP 44439 earn a median of $65,500 a year, 16.6% below the national figure of $78,538. 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 7.7% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 44439 is valued at $168,800, 44.4% below the national figure, while median gross rent runs $818 a month, 41.8% below the national figure, or roughly $9,816 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 15% 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 2.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 81.6% 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. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

ZIP 44439 is tabulated inside Trumbull County, Ohio, one of 25 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 1,233 across Ohio. This is one of the smallest tabulated ZIP areas in the state, the kind of rural route where a single subdivision or farm cluster accounts for most addresses. County assignment on this page follows the largest share of the ZIP's land area, which matters where a delivery route crosses a county line: mail addressed to 44439 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 44439 reports a median household income of $65,500, 5% above the $62,287 county median, and 4% below the $68,141 typical OH ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $168,800, 15% above the county figure and close to the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at $818 a month, which is why it reads higher than the advertised rent on a listing for the same unit.

Ohio charges 5.75% statewide, and local governments overlapping 44439 may add county, city or special-district levies on top. We publish the state floor for this ZIP rather than guessing a combined figure, because ZIP boundaries and taxing-district boundaries were drawn for different purposes and do not line up.

Everything above comes from the Census Bureau American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates for this ZIP Code Tabulation Area, with sales tax rates traced to the state revenue agency. Five-year estimates pool sixty months of responses, so they are stable enough to compare 44439 with its neighbours but always trail the current year, and any value the Census suppressed for sample size is shown as unpublished rather than filled in with a model.
