ZIP code 46510

ZIP 46510 is a small town in Kosciusko County, Indiana, with 3,154 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #380 of 807 ranked by population — larger than 52% of them. The median age here is 46 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 ZIP 46510 earn a median of $96,759 a year, 23.2% above the national figure of $78,538. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 1.6% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 46510 is valued at $201,500, 33.6% below the national figure, while median gross rent runs $944 a month, 32.9% below the national figure, or roughly $11,328 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 11.7% 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 2.1×, 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. 95.4% 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. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

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.

Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $201,500, 8% above the county figure and 20% above the statewide ZIP median.

Indiana charges 7% statewide, and no local sales tax is layered on top, so the state rate is the full amount collected in 46510.

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 46510 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.
