Kingsford Heights, IN population, income and ZIP codes

Kingsford Heights town is a small town in Indiana, with 1,313 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #301 of 976 ranked by population — larger than 69% of them. The median age here is 35.9 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Kingsford Heights town earn a median of $55,938 a year, 28.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and 9% below the $61,527 median for the 355 Indiana cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 18.2% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Kingsford Heights town is valued at $103,100, 66% below the national figure and 29% below the $145,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $805 a month, 42.7% below the national figure, or roughly $9,660 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17.3% 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 1.8×, 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. 59.4% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
