Montgomery County

Anchored by Dayton as its county seat, Montgomery County is a mid-sized Ohio metro with a population of 535,528 and a median household income of $64,403. At 62.3% owner-occupied, the county has a solid base of homeownership relative to many urban counties in the state. Current inventory is extremely tight, with only a handful of active listings available, meaning buyers face limited selection and should expect to move quickly when suitable properties appear. Pricing sits at an accessible level for the region, making the county more attainable than many comparable Ohio metros, and the price per square foot reflects good value for buyers seeking affordability without sacrificing space. Homes on the market tend toward modest, practical footprints that suit the income profile of the area well. The combination of low inventory and reasonable pricing continues to favor sellers in the near term, while buyers who do find available properties benefit from costs that remain manageable relative to household incomes in the county.
