We could not match this place to a county, so there is no HUD rent on this page.

Ohio's prices sit at 92.8 when the U.S. average is 100. This place is not in a metro area with its own index, so this is the state number from BEA for 2024.

Ohio taxes wages. A typical combined sales tax is 7.3% as of January 1, 2026. That mix is statewide, not Newport's exact store tax.

Some places in Ohio add a local wage tax. In 2023 the state average was about 1.20% of income. That is not a Newport bill.

In July 2026, a typical Ohio home paid 19.45¢ per kilowatt-hour. That is a state average from EIA, not Newport's bill.

For the week of October 12, 2026, EIA's all-grades gasoline price in Ohio was $3.974 a gallon. At 12,000 miles a year and 25 mpg, the index counts that as $1,907.52 a year. Those miles are our standard, not a Census figure, and every town in Ohio shares this price.
