ZIP Code 46254

Households in ZIP code 46254, on Indianapolis's west side, bring in a median income of $60,287, which works out to $34,795 per person. A home priced at the median value of $186,300 would carry an annual property tax bill near $1,695 at the county's 0.91% effective rate, a figure many owners can absorb within that earnings range. Day-to-day purchases, though, get a 7.00% sales tax added at checkout, so spending steadily chips away at take-home pay. Together these costs shape how far a paycheck stretches here: housing stays within reach, while everyday buying carries a steady premium.
