ZIP 46755 in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

ZIP 46755 is a mid-size town in Noble County, Indiana, with 15,528 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #164 of 807 ranked by population — larger than 79% of them. The median age here is 40.5 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 ZIP 46755 earn a median of $66,034 a year, 15.9% 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 10.8% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 46755 is valued at $160,300, 47.2% below the national figure, while median gross rent runs $722 a month, 48.6% below the national figure, or roughly $8,664 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 13.1% 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 2.4×, 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. 66.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. 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.

Reading ZIP 46755 in context

How 46755 sits inside Noble County and Indiana.

ZIP 46755 is tabulated inside Noble County, Indiana, one of 10 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 807 across Indiana. This is a mid-sized ZIP that covers a large share of its county's addresses. 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 46755 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 46755 reports a median household income of $66,034, 8% below the $71,500 county median, and 4% below the $68,990 typical IN ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $160,300, 15% below the county figure and 5% below the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at $722 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 46755.

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 46755 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.
