Cleona borough, PA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Cleona borough is a small town in Pennsylvania, with 1,809 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #699 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 65% of them. The median age here is 39.8 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.
Households in Cleona borough earn a median of $70,971 a year, 9.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and within a couple of points of 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 10.7% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Cleona borough is valued at $175,000, 42.3% below the national figure and 9% below the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,062 a month, 24.5% below the national figure, or roughly $12,744 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18% 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. 71.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.
Every value on this page is published directly by the Census for this area — nothing is modelled or interpolated. 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.
