What it’s like
The place. Malvern is a village in Carroll County, Ohio, and it is a small one, with a population that has not grown large enough to change its character. Household incomes here run well below the county's, while a typical home is worth a fair amount, so it is a place where many people own property but live on modest earnings. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month and temperatures that stay near or below freezing through the day, and summers are warm in July.
Work. Residents most often work in schools, hospitals and social care, followed by manufacturing, shops and the building trades. Across Carroll County, some of the largest workplaces are Carrollton Exempted Village Schools, Brown Local Schools and Interstate Waste Services. Unemployment across the county has eased from a year earlier, and the number of jobs has edged up slightly, while a modest share of residents work from home.
Things to do. Lake Mohawk is in or beside town, and Still Fork, a river, is a short drive away. For a day out, the Pro Football Hall of Fame and the First Ladies National Historic Site are both museums a longer drive away.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Malvern’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 Carroll County and the Canton-Massillon, OH metro.
