New Whiteland, IN population, income and ZIP codes

New Whiteland town is a mid-size town in Indiana, with 5,641 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #120 of 976 ranked by population — larger than 87% of them. The median age here is 32.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Whiteland town earn a median of $89,196 a year, 13.6% above the national figure of $78,538 and 45% 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 5.6% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in New Whiteland town is valued at $185,000, 39% below the national figure and 27% above the $145,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,221 a month, 13.2% below the national figure, or roughly $14,652 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 16.4% 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. 90% 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. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
