What land sells for nearby

Land in Parke County sold for:

  • 1 to 10 acres: $16.6k–$42.1k an acre (11 sales, Oct 2024–Sep 2026); median $26k
  • Lots under 1 acre: $11k–$25k a lot (13 sales, Oct 2024–Sep 2026); median $16k

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.
