Retirees, health and homes in Ashland
Ashland has an older population than most of the Rogue Valley and a high-value housing stock. These figures are Census estimates for the city.
Who lives here
- Median age is 47.7, and 29.9 percent of residents are 65 or older.
- Of 10,536 households, 51.6 percent own their home. The rest rent.
- Median household income is $68,028.
What homes are worth
- The median owner-occupied home is valued at $583,800.
- Of 5,441 owner-occupied homes, 4,940 (90.8 percent) are valued at $300,000 or more and 1,089 at $750,000 or more.
- County assessor data, summarized in our market research, shows 6,991 residential lots in the city valued at $300,000 or more. That is a count of lots, not owner-occupied homes, so the two figures differ.
Health care
We do not list providers. For health care in Ashland, start with Jackson County's public health pages and with the hospital and clinic sites your insurer recognizes. Wikipedia notes that Asante Ashland Community Hospital was restructured in 2026 and now works as a satellite campus of Rogue Regional Medical Center, so confirm services directly before relying on them.
Reading the numbers with care
These are survey estimates from 2020 through 2024 and they lag the market. For a specific property, use the Jackson County Assessor and a local real estate professional.
