Marietta

Situated along the Ohio River in Washington County, this historic city of 13,282 residents currently shows 67 active listings with a median home price of $179,900 and a price per square foot of $134. Those figures reflect a relatively accessible entry point compared to many Ohio markets, with the average listed home running approximately 1,858 square feet. The owner-occupied rate sits at 55.7 percent, suggesting a meaningful renter presence that can support investment property demand alongside traditional owner purchases. Median household income is $45,986, which positions the local buyer pool toward the more affordable end of the price spectrum and helps explain the concentration of activity in that sub-$200,000 range. Families with school-age children fall under the Marietta City School District. The combination of riverfront location, relatively low price per square foot, and modest but steady inventory makes this a market worth monitoring for buyers seeking value in southeast Ohio.
