What it’s like
The place. Logan is a small city and the seat of Hocking County in southeastern Ohio. Residents are somewhat younger than in many small towns, and most homes are lived in by their owners. Incomes run below the county's, and poverty is more common here than in much of the country. Winters are cold and summers warm, with rain and melted snow spread through the year.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, with manufacturing, restaurants and hotels, and shops also employing a good share. Among the largest workplaces in Logan are Logan-Hocking Local Schools, Walmart and Amanda Manufacturing. Few adults hold a four-year degree, and very few work from home. Across Hocking County, unemployment has eased a little over the past year, though the number of jobs has slipped slightly.
Things to do. Lake Logan State Park and Rockbridge State Nature Preserve are both a short drive away, offering lakeside and wooded outdoor space. Hocking Hills State Park, one of the best known protected areas in the region, is a longer drive away. Closer to home, the Pencil Sharpener Museum is in or beside town.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Logan’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Hocking County and the Columbus, OH metro.
