Housing & affordability

How it’s calculated →

Median rent of $1,228 takes 16% of median household income, below the 30% threshold at which a household is considered cost-burdened.

A median home costs 2.9 times median household income here, close to the historic benchmark for an affordable market.

Both affordability measures come from the same ACS release as the income they are compared with, so the comparison is like for like. They describe housing cost against local earnings and are not a cost-of-living index — transport, groceries, healthcare, insurance and taxes are not included, and a place can look affordable here and still be expensive to live in for reasons this does not capture.

Physical risk

90 / 100
Physical resilience

The hazards accounting for most of this area's expected annual loss are hail, strong wind and heat wave.

HailElevated
Strong windModerate
Winter weatherModerate
Ice stormModerate
Heat waveModerate

Low or minimal exposure: lightning, inland flooding, tornado, earthquake, cold wave, hurricane, landslide, wildfire, drought.

Hazard ratings are AreaProfile calculations derived from the FEMA National Risk Index v1.20.0 (December 2025). FEMA publishes at county level. City values are the population-weighted mean of the counties the city overlaps, using AreaProfile place-to-county land-area weights. FEMA does not endorse this presentation. Higher physical resilience means lower exposure.

Taxes

AreaProfile does not yet publish tax comparisons. No tax dataset has met the source admission test for coverage, methodology transparency and update cadence, and the product rule is to omit a dimension rather than estimate it. The Area Score is calculated without a tax component and the weighting is documented on the methodology page.

Nothing on AreaProfile is individualized tax advice.

Access

6 major airports lie within 100 miles, the nearest 3 miles away.

AirportCodeDistanceLongest runway
Akron-Canton RgnlCAK3 mi8,204 ft
Cleveland-Hopkins IntlCLE37 mi9,953 ft
Youngstown/Warren RgnlYNG46 mi9,003 ft

Airport identity, position and runway data come from the FAA. “Major airport” is an AreaProfile classification — a public-use civil airport with a paved runway of at least 8,000 feet — not an FAA hub designation. Distances are straight-line, not driving distance.
