Blandon CDP, PA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Blandon CDP is a mid-size town in Pennsylvania, with 7,546 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #154 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 92% of them. The median age here is 43.4 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.
Households in Blandon CDP earn a median of $109,775 a year, 39.8% above the national figure of $78,538 and 54% above the $71,118 median for the 982 Pennsylvania cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 6.5% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Blandon CDP is valued at $269,700, 11.1% below the national figure and 40% above the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,178 a month, 16.2% below the national figure, or roughly $14,136 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 12.9% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 90.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
