Winfield town, IN in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Winfield town is a mid-size town in Indiana, with 7,501 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #96 of 976 ranked by population — larger than 90% of them. The median age here is 38.7 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 Winfield town earn a median of $128,980 a year, 64.2% above the national figure of $78,538 and 110% above 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 3.8% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Winfield town is valued at $401,200, 32.2% above the national figure and 176% above the $145,600 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,981 a month, 40.9% above the national figure, or roughly $23,772 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.4% 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 3.1×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 94.8% 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.
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.
