New Washington CDP, IN in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
New Washington CDP is a very small community in Indiana, with 432 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #542 of 976 ranked by population — larger than 44% 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 New Washington CDP earn a median of $84,141 a year, 7.1% above the national figure of $78,538 and 37% above 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 5.8% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in New Washington CDP is valued at $193,000, 36.4% below the national figure and 33% above the $145,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 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. 84.4% 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.
With 432 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare New Washington CDP against its county rather than against national figures.
The Census withheld gross rent for New Washington CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
