This is a small place, and the figures below carry wide margins.
The American Community Survey reaches Damascus through a sample, not a count, and in a place this size that sample is thin. The population estimate here is 361 with a margin of error of plus or minus 185, which is 51.2 percent of the estimate itself. Every figure whose margin reaches 20 percent is printed with that margin beside it, so you can see the width of each one rather than having to assume it.
Nothing has been removed or adjusted. These are the published federal estimates, shown with the uncertainty the Census publishes alongside them.

Mahoning County, not Damascus
Mahoning County context, not Damascus figures
These are Mahoning County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Damascus measurements.
- Establishments in Mahoning County5,391
- Employment at those establishments, Mahoning County83,444
- Covered employment, Mahoning County93,784
- Average annual pay, Mahoning County$51,623

- County product change over the prior year, Mahoning County4.3 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Mahoning County$50,285
Every figure in this section is published for Mahoning County as a whole and is not a measurement of Damascus. It is here because a county backdrop is what a credit committee reads a place against, and it is labelled so that it can never be quoted as the place's own.

Coverage
What this page does not hold.
Every item below could be filled with a plausible figure. None of them is. On a page a lender may read, a number that cannot be traced is worse than an absence, so the absences are named.
- No SBA approvals are recorded to a borrower address in this place in either FOIA release.
- This place is not listed as a community in the FEMA Community Status Book, so no NFIP participation or CRS class is shown.
- The American Community Survey does not publish a median household income for this place, which happens where the sample is too small to support one.
- No median gross rent is published for this place.
- Parcel level detail, zoning and flood zone at an address are resolved in the platform, not on this page.
SBA figures count approvals to borrowers whose address is in the place. They are not approvals for projects inside the place boundary: the tape records a borrower city and a project county, and those can differ.
Common questions
Damascus questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Damascus, Ohio?
361, in 148 households. Damascus CDP covers 0.80 square miles of land, which is 452 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is Damascus in?
Damascus lies in more than one. By area it is 72.3 percent in Mahoning County, 27.7 percent in Columbiana County. This page sits under Mahoning County because that county holds the largest share. The split is measured from the Census boundary of the place against the county boundaries.
Are the county figures on this page Damascus figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Mahoning County as a whole and there is no place level equivalent. They appear in one clearly marked section as context and are never presented as measurements of Damascus.
Is zoning published for Damascus?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
