Dunmore borough, PA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Dunmore borough is a mid-size town in Pennsylvania, with 14,123 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #52 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 97% of them. The median age here is 40.3 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 Dunmore borough earn a median of $75,632 a year, 3.7% below the national figure of $78,538 and 6% above 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 11.4% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Dunmore borough is valued at $186,900, 38.4% below the national figure and 3% below the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $923 a month, 34.4% below the national figure, or roughly $11,076 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 14.6% 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 2.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 59.1% 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.

All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. 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.
