Home values and rent in Kenton

The county tax-drag math applies here

Kenton sits in Hardin County, where the effective property tax rate is 1.05% — 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 Hardin County page — here's the tax line specifically for a property at Kenton's own numbers:

Property value used: $151,200 (countywide)
Hardin County effective tax rate: 1.05%
Estimated monthly property tax: $132

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.
