Harmony town, IN in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Harmony town is a very small community in Indiana, with 708 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #436 of 976 ranked by population — larger than 55% of them. The median age here is 43.9 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 Harmony town earn a median of $53,650 a year, 31.7% below the national figure of $78,538 and 13% below the $61,527 median for the 355 Indiana cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 14% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Harmony town is valued at $115,100, 62.1% below the national figure and 21% below the $145,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $850 a month, 39.5% below the national figure, or roughly $10,200 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19% 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 2.1×, 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. 75.8% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
