Broomall CDP, PA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Broomall CDP is a mid-size town in Pennsylvania, with 10,684 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #78 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 96% of them. The median age here is 44.3 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 Broomall CDP earn a median of $114,844 a year, 46.2% above the national figure of $78,538 and 61% 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 4.2% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Broomall CDP is valued at $452,300, 49.1% above the national figure and 134% above the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,784 a month, 26.9% above the national figure, or roughly $21,408 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.6% 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 3.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 79.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
