What land sells for nearby
Land in Benton County sold for:
- 10 acres or more: $14.7k–$16.5k an acre (23 sales, Oct 2024–Sep 2026); median $15.5k
The middle half (25th to 75th percentile) and the median of arm's-length single-parcel land sales. Each size uses its own months (the shortest of 12, 24 or 36 that holds enough sales), so the sizes' counts need not add up to another figure on this page. Source: STATS Indiana sales disclosure forms, valid for trending by the county assessor, vacant land with no improvement on the parcel at the sale. Recorded sales, not an estimate of any parcel.

About these ratingsFEMA's index and what it measures
Ratings come from FEMA's National Risk Index (v1.20, planning-level) and the public federal and state maps named on each row, not a private climate model. FEMA rates each census tract from expected annual losses, community resilience and social vulnerability, for planning; it is not an assessment of this parcel.

Tax value
Tax value: the county's yearly assessment (gross assessed value, trended every year), not a market price. County file, September 2025.
Gross assessed value (the county assessor's market value-in-use, trended every year), not a market estimate. Farmland is assessed by the state's base-rate formula, well below what farmland sells for.
Estimate
Rough estimate: based on the assessed value of the buildings, scaled by recent home prices, plus typical prices per acre in Benton and nearby counties. Not tested to our accuracy standard. Half of past estimates were within ±20% (measured across nearby counties); the range covers about 8 in 10.
