Conneaut Lake borough, PA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Conneaut Lake borough is a very small community in Pennsylvania, with 546 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1304 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 34% of them. The median age here is 42.5 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 Conneaut Lake borough earn a median of $47,500 a year, 39.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 33% below 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 16.1% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Conneaut Lake borough is valued at $126,300, 58.4% below the national figure and 35% below the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $775 a month, 44.9% below the national figure, or roughly $9,300 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19.6% 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 2.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 61.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. 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.
