Kosciusko County, not Syracuse
Kosciusko County context, not Syracuse figures
These are Kosciusko County figures. There is no place level equivalent published for any of them, so they are shown as the county backdrop and never as Syracuse measurements.
- Establishments in Kosciusko County2,039
- Employment at those establishments, Kosciusko County38,731
- Covered employment, Kosciusko County36,183
- Average annual pay, Kosciusko County$58,899
- Average weekly wage, Kosciusko County$1,133
- Housing units permitted, Kosciusko County261
- Of those, single family, Kosciusko County249
- County product, 2024, Kosciusko County$7,835,521,000
- County product change over the prior year, Kosciusko County3.3 percent
- Average income of an arriving household, Kosciusko County$62,700
Every figure in this section is published for Kosciusko County as a whole and is not a measurement of Syracuse. It is here because a county backdrop is what a credit committee reads a place against, and it is labelled so that it can never be quoted as the place's own.

Coverage
What this page does not hold.
Every item below could be filled with a plausible figure. None of them is. On a page a lender may read, a number that cannot be traced is worse than an absence, so the absences are named.
- This place is not listed as a community in the FEMA Community Status Book, so no NFIP participation or CRS class is shown.
- Parcel level detail, zoning and flood zone at an address are resolved in the platform, not on this page.
SBA figures count approvals to borrowers whose address is in the place. They are not approvals for projects inside the place boundary: the tape records a borrower city and a project county, and those can differ.
Common questions
Syracuse questions, answered from the record.
How many people live in Syracuse, Indiana?
3,233, in 1,506 households. Syracuse town covers 2.21 square miles of land, which is 1,461 people per square mile. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
What county is Syracuse in?
Syracuse lies in more than one. By area it is 96.3 percent in Kosciusko County, 3.7 percent in Elkhart County. This page sits under Kosciusko County because that county holds the largest share. The split is measured from the Census boundary of the place against the county boundaries.
What is the median household income in Syracuse?
$71,833. The median owner-occupied home is valued at $199,400. Median gross rent is $1,115 per month. Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, place level, 2020-2024 5-year.
How much SBA lending goes to Syracuse businesses?
9 7(a) approvals totalling $3.5 m, across 6 lenders, median approval $119,000, plus 4 504 approvals worth $3.6 m. These count approvals to borrowers whose address is in Syracuse, not projects sited inside the place boundary, and they are approvals recorded in the release rather than loans disbursed.
Do SBA loans to Syracuse borrowers get paid back?
No rate is published for Syracuse. only 1 resolved loans, too few to publish a rate, and a percentage over that few outcomes would move several points on a single loan. The counts are shown instead.
Are the county figures on this page Syracuse figures?
No, and they are labelled so. County Business Patterns, QCEW, the Building Permits Survey, BEA product and IRS migration are published for Kosciusko County as a whole and there is no place level equivalent. They appear in one clearly marked section as context and are never presented as measurements of Syracuse.
Is zoning published for Syracuse?
Not yet. The zoning layer is in build. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
