Midvale is a small village in Tuscarawas County, Ohio, covering just 0.24 square miles with a population of 632 residents. The Midvale post office maintains 226 PO Boxes for a community of 246 households. That's a 92% adoption rate.

The post office also handles General Delivery, a service typically reserved for transient populations or emergency situations.
Midvale's 632 residents live in a compact, working-class community. The median household income is $66,250, and the median home value is $97,200. About 73% of homes are owner-occupied. The population is 97% white, with a median age of 38.2 years. Educational attainment is low at just 5.6% with a bachelor's degree or higher, well below state and national averages.
The local economy is dominated by transportation and warehousing, with 370 workers in this sector out of a total workforce of around 270 (some residents commute in from nearby communities). Another 65 work in educational and health services, and 46 in accommodation and food services. About 24% work from home. The village has 14 business establishments employing 166 people, giving it a modest commercial presence despite its small size.
