ZIP 46076 in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
ZIP 46076 is a small town in Tipton County, Indiana, with 1,754 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #484 of 807 ranked by population — larger than 40% of them. The median age here is 38.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 ZIP 46076 earn a median of $72,434 a year, 7.8% below the national figure of $78,538. 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 12.3% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 46076 is valued at $122,400, 59.7% below the national figure, while median gross rent runs $1,009 a month, 28.2% below the national figure, or roughly $12,108 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 16.7% 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 1.7×, 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. 84.3% 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.
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.
Reading ZIP 46076 in context
How 46076 sits inside Tipton County and Indiana.
ZIP 46076 is tabulated inside Tipton County, Indiana, one of 6 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 807 across Indiana. Fewer than 2,500 people are counted here, so the ZIP behaves like a village delivery route rather than a neighbourhood. County assignment on this page follows the largest share of the ZIP's land area, which matters where a delivery route crosses a county line: mail addressed to 46076 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.
Against its own county, 46076 reports a median household income of $72,434, 8% below the $78,523 county median, and 5% above the $68,990 typical IN ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $122,400, 28% below the county figure and 27% below the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at $1,009 a month, which is why it reads higher than the advertised rent on a listing for the same unit.
Indiana charges 7% statewide, and no local sales tax is layered on top, so the state rate is the full amount collected in 46076.
Everything above comes from the Census Bureau American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates for this ZIP Code Tabulation Area, with sales tax rates traced to the state revenue agency. Five-year estimates pool sixty months of responses, so they are stable enough to compare 46076 with its neighbours but always trail the current year, and any value the Census suppressed for sample size is shown as unpublished rather than filled in with a model.

Affordability in this ZIP
Derived from the Census medians above — indicative, not an offer.
A rent burden above 30% is the federal threshold for cost-burdened households, and a price-to-income multiple above 4× is generally considered a stretched housing market. The mortgage figure is principal and interest only — taxes, insurance and HOA dues are extra.
