Bainbridge town, IN in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Bainbridge town is a very small community in Indiana, with 553 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #488 of 976 ranked by population — larger than 50% of them. The median age here is 39.5 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.
Households in Bainbridge town earn a median of $56,731 a year, 27.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and 8% below the $61,527 median for the 355 Indiana cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 11.9% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Bainbridge town is valued at $148,400, 51.1% below the national figure and within a couple of points of the $145,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $934 a month, 33.6% below the national figure, or roughly $11,208 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19.8% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 72% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
