ZIP code 46130

ZIP 46130 is a small town in Shelby County, Indiana, with 2,372 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #430 of 807 ranked by population — larger than 46% of them. The median age here is 38.8 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 46130 earn a median of $110,221 a year, 40.3% above the national figure of $78,538. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 9.6% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 46130 is valued at $285,400, 5.9% below the national figure, while median gross rent runs $1,045 a month, 25.7% below the national figure, or roughly $12,540 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 11.4% 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 2.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 94.6% 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.

ZIP 46130 is tabulated inside Shelby County, Indiana, one of 9 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 46130 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Indiana charges 7% statewide, and no local sales tax is layered on top, so the state rate is the full amount collected in 46130.

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 46130 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.
