In Bloomington, IN, the 2024 ACS reports a median owner-occupied home value of $321,400, median household income of $50,465, and median selected monthly owner costs of $1,546 for owners with a mortgage. For the decision at hand, together, those three reference points can help a borrower identify which search-price, income, and recurring-cost assumptions need current verification first. They remain separate medians, not the finances of one representative household, and the $1,546 measure combines recurring ownership expenses instead of real estate taxes alone. In practical terms, a useful affordability review starts with $321,400, $50,465, and $1,546, then replaces them with the borrower's documented income, cash, debts, property taxes, insurance, association charges, loan terms, and intended occupancy.

Bloomington, IN's $321,400 median home-value estimate is above the statewide $218,200 estimate, with a reported city-to-state gap of 47.3%.
