Dry Tavern, PA population, income and ZIP codes

Dry Tavern CDP is a very small community in Pennsylvania, with 661 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1206 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 39% of them. The median age here is 47.8 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Dry Tavern CDP earn a median of $79,625 a year, 1.4% above the national figure of $78,538 and 12% 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 4.6% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Dry Tavern CDP is valued at $196,300, 35.3% below the national figure and within a couple of points of the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 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. 91.6% 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. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

With 661 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Dry Tavern CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for Dry Tavern CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
