CLEVELAND – Median family income in Ohio cities range from a high of $207,969 in the Columbus suburb of New Albany to below $40,000 in seven separate cities, according to new estimates released Thursday by the Census Bureau.
Second for median income is the Cincinnati suburb of Indian Hill at $204,417, followed next by the Cleveland suburb of Pepper Pike at $200,699. In the Cleveland-Akron area, second behind Pepper Pike, and 10th overall in Ohio, is Hudson at $148,789.
As defined for this data, families are households with two or more related people.
Separate data for all households include all places, such as older adults living alone, students in college apartments, and families.
The latest survey was taken from 2016 through 2020. For comparison, 2012-2016 numbers showed the highest median family income to be in New Albany, but at $214,850 and 14 cities with average household income below $40,000 income bracket.
Between the two surveys, the city of Madeira in Hamilton County saw the most significant increase in income, increasing 52.88% from $101,794 to $155,625. Fourteen cities decreased in income, with Struthers in Mahoning County having a 10.78% decrease from $50,154 to $44,745.
However, with inflation increasing 7.8% from 2016 to 2020, the median income of 68 Ohio cities did not grow at the same rate.
See the chart below for the full ranking of cities by median income in 2020 and 2016 and by what percent the income changed. Not shown in the chart are the smaller villages, places of less than 5,000 people, because of higher margins of error from the survey for smaller places.
No. 1 New Albany is the city recently chosen to become the home of Intel’s new semiconductor chip factory.
