Kouts town, IN in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Kouts town is a small town in Indiana, with 2,261 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #209 of 976 ranked by population — larger than 78% 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 Kouts town earn a median of $75,854 a year, 3.4% below the national figure of $78,538 and 23% above 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 4.8% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Kouts town is valued at $223,700, 26.3% below the national figure and 54% above the $145,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $699 a month, 50.3% below the national figure, or roughly $8,388 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 11.1% 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 2.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 82.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.
