ZIP code 47150

ZIP 47150 is a small city in Floyd County, Indiana, with 49,606 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #6 of 807 ranked by population — larger than 99% of them. The median age here is 39.1 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 ZIP 47150 earn a median of $62,212 a year, 20.8% 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 14.9% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 47150 is valued at $191,800, 36.8% below the national figure, while median gross rent runs $984 a month, 30% below the national figure, or roughly $11,808 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19% 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. 62.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

Every value on this page is published directly by the Census for this area — nothing is modelled or interpolated. 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 47150 is tabulated inside Floyd County, Indiana, one of 4 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 807 across Indiana. This is a dense urban ZIP, where a single postal boundary can hold more residents than an entire rural county. 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 47150 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 47150 reports a median household income of $62,212, 43% below the $108,925 county median, and 10% below the $68,990 typical IN ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $191,800, 31% below the county figure and 14% above the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at $984 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 47150.

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 47150 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.
