Median age in Greenland
| Period | Greenland | Ohio | U.S. |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2006–10 | 37.6 | 39.0 | 37.7 |

| 2020–24 | 39.6 | 40.8 | 40.1 |
| Change | +2.0 | +1.8 | +2.3 |
At 39.6, the median age in Greenland is close to the national median of 40.1, so its age mix looks much like the country's. The median age has climbed from 37.6 in 2006–10, but in a place this small, much of that may be survey noise rather than real change.

| Change | +$335 | +$377 | +$606 |
Rent in Greenland runs $1,130 a month at the median, utilities included, well below the U.S. median of $1,571. Ohio as a whole looks much the same. Rent takes 36.9% of the typical renter's income, well over the 30% mark often used to define affordable rent, so many renters here are stretched.
Rent: monthly rent plus the utilities renters pay themselves. Source: BestNeighborhood calculations from U.S. Census Bureau ACS 5-year block-group estimates (table B25064).

About these numbers
Every figure on this page is a BestNeighborhood calculation from the Census Bureau's American Community Survey (ACS), built up from the Census block groups that make up Greenland. Each ACS 5-year release pools five years of responses; this page shows the last 15 releases, 2006–10 through 2020–24. Neighboring releases share four of their five years, so they move gradually and small changes between them are within the survey's margin of error; in small places the lines can jump from one release to the next for the same reason. The maps show the same measures for each neighborhood, ranked against the whole country.
