Home values and rent in Johnstown
Countywide, Licking County's median home value is $275,200 (ACS 2020-2024 5yr) — a Johnstown-specific figure isn't independently published, so this reflects the whole county, not Johnstown alone.

03
The county tax-drag math applies here
Johnstown sits in Licking County, where the effective property tax rate is 1.08% — below Ohio's 1.36% statewide average. The full worked PITIA and DSCR example, built on a property at the county's median value, is on the Licking County page — here's the tax line specifically for a property at Johnstown's own numbers:
- Property value used
- $275,200 (countywide)
- Licking County effective tax rate
- 1.08%
- Estimated monthly property tax
- $248
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.
