Camp Hill borough, PA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Camp Hill borough is a mid-size town in Pennsylvania, with 8,149 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #139 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 93% of them. The median age here is 43.6 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 Camp Hill borough earn a median of $110,938 a year, 41.3% above the national figure of $78,538 and 56% above the $71,118 median for the 982 Pennsylvania cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 5.8% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Camp Hill borough is valued at $290,300, 4.3% below the national figure and 50% above the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,204 a month, 14.4% below the national figure, or roughly $14,448 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 13% 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 2.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 76.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
