Star City, IN population, income and ZIP codes

Star City CDP is a very small community in Indiana, with 211 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #701 of 976 ranked by population — larger than 28% of them. The median age here is 58.2 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Star City CDP earn a median of $40,536 a year, 48.4% below the national figure of $78,538 and 34% below the $61,527 median for the 355 Indiana cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 0% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Star City CDP is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 56.9% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

A median age of 58.2 puts Star City CDP well into retirement-weighted territory, which pulls median household income down even where household wealth is high, because retirement draws are counted differently from wages. With 211 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Star City CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld home value, gross rent for Star City 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.
