Breinigsville CDP, PA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Breinigsville CDP is a mid-size town in Pennsylvania, with 8,159 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #138 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 93% of them. The median age here is 37.9 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Breinigsville CDP earn a median of $116,631 a year, 48.5% above the national figure of $78,538 and 64% above the $71,118 median for the 982 Pennsylvania cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 1.3% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Breinigsville CDP is valued at $368,600, 21.5% above the national figure and 91% above the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,021 a month, 43.7% above the national figure, or roughly $24,252 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.8% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 91.3% 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.
