Perrysburg has 25,181 residents (ACS 2020–2024), about 0.2% of the population of Ohio. It covers 12 square miles of land, which works out to roughly 2,081 people per square mile. The median age is 38.1, 4% younger than the state median (38.1 against 39.7).

US housing guidance treats housing as affordable when it takes 30% of income or less, so the typical household is under that line. The median home value is $329,700, which is 3.0 times the median household income ($111,643); a ratio under 4 usually means ownership is within reach for many households. 63.4% of households own their home, 6% below the state average (63.4% against 67.2%).

Remote work is more common than in the state as a whole, which widens the set of employers a resident can work for without moving.
57.6% of adults aged 25 and over hold a bachelor's degree or higher, 83% above the state share (57.6% against 31.5%). 6.4% of residents were born outside the United States, 23% above the state share (6.4% against 5.2%). The poverty rate is 4.1%, 69% below the state rate (4.1% against 13.3%).

About 905 mm (36 inches) of precipitation falls in a year; May is the wettest month (104 mm) and Jan the driest (54 mm). These values come from NASA satellite-based climatology on a grid of about 50 km, so they describe the wider area, not a weather station in the city.
