New Concord

Tucked into Muskingum County in eastern Ohio, this small college community of roughly 2,600 residents carries a median household income of $72,120 and an owner-occupied rate sitting right at 50.1 percent, reflecting the mix of permanent residents and student-adjacent renters that shapes demand here. With only 12 active listings currently on the market, inventory is tight, giving sellers a notable advantage. The median home price of $287,450 and a price per square foot of $502 point to a market where buyers are paying a premium relative to the modest average home size of 1,208 square feet. That dynamic suggests strong underlying demand in a supply-constrained environment. Families considering the area fall under the East Muskingum Local School District. The limited turnover and concentrated inventory mean buyers should be prepared to act decisively, while sellers can reasonably expect competitive interest on well-priced properties.
