Francisco town, IN in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Francisco town is a very small community in Indiana, with 635 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #459 of 976 ranked by population — larger than 53% of them. The median age here is 40.2 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 Francisco town earn a median of $62,460 a year, 20.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and within a couple of points of the $61,527 median for the 355 Indiana cities we cover. 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 14.5% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Francisco town is valued at $103,800, 65.8% below the national figure and 29% below the $145,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,059 a month, 24.7% below the national figure, or roughly $12,708 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.3% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 1.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 77.5% 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.
