New Haven, IN population, income and ZIP codes

New Haven city is a mid-size town in Indiana, with 15,339 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #61 of 976 ranked by population — larger than 93% of them. The median age here is 38.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in New Haven city earn a median of $67,121 a year, 14.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 9% above the $61,527 median for the 355 Indiana cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 8.3% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in New Haven city is valued at $151,200, 50.2% below the national figure and 4% above the $145,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $947 a month, 32.6% below the national figure, or roughly $11,364 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 16.9% 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 2.3×, 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. 76.3% 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.
