Shelby

Located in Richland County, this small Ohio city of 8,706 residents offers a housing market with relatively accessible entry points compared to many Ohio metros. The current median home price sits at $127,950, with buyers paying an average of $96 per square foot. Homes in the area average 2,005 square feet, providing substantial space at that price point. Inventory is tight at the moment, with only 6 active listings available, which may create competitive conditions for buyers entering the market. The owner-occupied rate of 63.9% reflects a predominantly homeowning community, and the median household income of $52,760 shapes demand across the local market. Families with children will find the Shelby City School District serving the area. The combination of larger average home sizes and a below-state-average price per square foot may appeal to buyers prioritizing space and value over proximity to larger urban centers.
