Russiaville town, IN in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Russiaville town is a small town in Indiana, with 1,374 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #292 of 976 ranked by population — larger than 70% of them. The median age here is 39.4 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 Russiaville town earn a median of $86,321 a year, 9.9% above the national figure of $78,538 and 40% 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% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Russiaville town is valued at $175,300, 42.2% below the national figure and 20% above the $145,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $897 a month, 36.2% below the national figure, or roughly $10,764 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 12.5% 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×, 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. 80.7% 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.
All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. 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.
