Safety & Crime

Crime statistics should be considered at the jurisdiction level rather than as a description of conditions at this property. FBI-based 2024 data reported for the City of Circleville included 41 violent-crime offenses and 249 property-crime offenses. The reported 2024 rates were approximately 2.80 violent offenses and 17.03 property offenses per 1,000 residents. The same dataset shows property-crime reports declining from 575 in 2020 to 249 in 2024, while violent-crime reports were 35 in 2020 and 41 in 2024.

These figures represent reported city-level offenses and should not be interpreted as a property-specific safety rating or prediction.

Schools & Education

The property is located in the Logan Elm Local School District. The district operates Logan Elm Elementary, Logan Elm Middle School, and Logan Elm High School. Nearby schools are presented as area resources; school proximity does not by itself establish enrollment assignment for a particular property.

Housing Market History

Historical Circleville home-value data based on Zillow Home Value Index figures provides a consistent city-level view of annual typical home values. The series below uses the same ZHVI metric for each year and is descriptive rather than predictive.

Zillow’s current Circleville market page reports a typical home value of $293,363 as of August 31, 2026, with a 3.0% year-over-year change. Redfin’s market data for the three months ending August 2026 reports a $304,798 median sale price across all home types, with a 29.7% year-over-year increase. These figures use different methodologies and should not be treated as interchangeable.

State Route 56 provides direct roadway access along the property’s address, while Circleville’s broader transportation network connects with US 23 and US 22. US 23 provides a major north-south connection through Circleville, linking the community with destinations including Columbus and Chillicothe.

Utilities & Connectivity

Circleville’s Department of Public Utilities provides water and sanitary sewer services within the city. The property itself is listed with public water and public sewer, providing property-specific utility information for this residence. Internet availability is address-dependent, and the FCC National Broadband Map allows buyers to check providers, technologies, and reported speeds at a specific address.

Utility service, connection arrangements, and broadband availability should be independently confirmed with the applicable provider before purchase, particularly for a property located outside a municipal service boundary.

Development & Planning

Circleville is actively planning and evaluating infrastructure and development projects. The city’s 2025 annual report lists multiple residential developments, including Courtyards at Northridge, Heritage Ponds Section 5, River Ridge, Alto PUD, Wesley Commons PUD, Jodiro, and Lakeside Reserve, with different approval and permitting statuses.

The city is also advancing planning for a railroad grade separation over the Norfolk Southern rail lines. A 2025 city resolution adopted a feasibility study identifying the South Court Street corridor as the preferred corridor and authorized an Alternative Evaluation Report as the next phase. The project remains subject to further evaluation and design rather than representing a completed improvement.

Current city information also references the Scioto Preserve Planned Unit Development and ongoing planning activity. Buyers should consult the city’s planning and zoning resources for the latest project status because development proposals, approvals, engineering requirements, and schedules can change.
