Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Norwalk?

Gross bookings per Norwalk listing averaged $21,488 over the 12 months to November 2025 (Ohio average: $27,235), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

The average Norwalk listing brought in $4,070 in July, its best month, and $921 in January, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 43% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

Across Norwalk's 19 active listings, monthly revenue by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $4,010+ a month, about twice the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $2,870 or more, roughly $850 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $2,020 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $1,180 or less, about 58% of the median.

These are monthly figures for listings active in each month. The annual average above also counts listings that operated for only part of the year, so it runs below twelve times these figures.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Norwalk Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Norwalk Airbnb took in $21,488 in the 12 months to November 2025, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $1,310 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money. A listing in the top quarter leaves about $1,870 a month.

These amounts come before housing costs. Where the mortgage or rent is less each month, the difference is profit; a home owned outright keeps it all after property tax, home insurance and any HOA or condo fees.

How Norwalk's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Norwalk listings are booked on 55% or more of their nights, against 35% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $155 adds about $1,560 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $200 a night or more, against a median of $155. That is a separate ranking from the busiest quarter, so the two marks don't multiply into one listing's takings. For the average listing, a 10% higher rate on the nights it already books adds about $2,150 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. July brought the average listing about $4,070, against $921 in January, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.

What a listing keeps comes down to the figures this page measures: nightly rate, nights booked and the months it's open. A listing at the top-quarter mark takes in about $2,540 a month, against $1,790 for the average one.
