Bowling Green, IN population, income and housing data

Bowling Green CDP is a very small community in Indiana, with 289 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #631 of 976 ranked by population — larger than 35% of them. The median age here is 26.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Bowling Green CDP earn a median of not published a year. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 17.3% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Bowling Green CDP is valued at $95,000, 68.7% below the national figure and 35% below the $145,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 69.7% 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.

A median age of 26.6 means a large student or early-career population; income medians in places like this understate household resources, since many residents are supported from outside the address. With 289 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Bowling Green CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld household income, gross rent for Bowling Green CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
