Belpre

Situated along the Ohio River in Washington County, this small city of 6,668 residents carries a median home price of $269,900, with buyers paying roughly $268 per square foot for properties that average 1,691 square feet. The current market shows 35 active listings, offering relatively limited inventory for a city of its size. At 61.5%, owner-occupancy reflects a community where most residents have long-term stakes in the local housing stock. A median household income of $50,930 means the typical home price sits at just over five times annual earnings, a ratio that can present affordability challenges for first-time buyers without significant down payment resources. Families with children are served by Belpre City School District. The riverfront setting and proximity to Parkersburg, West Virginia, across the border give the area regional connectivity that likely supports steady demand despite the modest local population base.
