Fort Wayne, IN — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
ZIP code 46835, spanning part of Fort Wayne, sits squarely in middle-income territory. Households here earn a median of $77,152, while per-capita income reaches $38,729 — enough to keep pace with a metro area where costs stay below the national average. Homes carry a median value of $210,100, and the county's 0.79% effective property tax rate means annual bills stay contained. Add a 7.00% combined sales tax on purchases, and the overall tax picture stays steady rather than steep. This is a place where earnings stretch further than in pricier markets, though neither incomes nor home values climb into affluent range.
