Home values and rent in Ironton
We don't have a Ironton-specific median home value. Countywide, Lawrence County's figure is $144,000 (ACS 2020-2024 5yr) — treat this as a county-level baseline, not a Ironton number. On rent, we're again working from the county: Lawrence County's median gross rent is $848/mo (ACS 2020-2024 5yr), not a Ironton-specific figure.

The county tax-drag math applies here
Lawrence County's 0.84% effective tax rate applies to property in Ironton — below the 1.36% statewide average. The full worked PITIA and DSCR example, built on a property at the county's median value, is on the Lawrence County page — here's the tax line specifically for a property at Ironton's own numbers:
- Property value used
- $144,000 (countywide)
- Lawrence County effective tax rate
- 0.84%
- Estimated monthly property tax
- $101
That estimate uses an observed Ohio DSCR average of 7.20% (Q2 2026)¹ elsewhere in the full county example — this is a market observation, not an offer; your rate depends on your DSCR, credit, LTV and loan purpose, and is set by the lender, not by us.
