Speedway town, IN in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Speedway town is a mid-size town in Indiana, with 13,622 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #66 of 976 ranked by population — larger than 93% of them. The median age here is 35.9 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 Speedway town earn a median of $57,158 a year, 27.2% below the national figure of $78,538 and 7% below 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 15.4% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

A household on the local median income would put about 23.5% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 46.4% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters.
