East Brady, PA population, income and ZIP codes

East Brady borough is a small town in Pennsylvania, with 1,070 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #958 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 52% of them. The median age here is 41.7 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 East Brady borough earn a median of $58,438 a year, 25.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 18% below the $71,118 median for the 982 Pennsylvania cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 10.7% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in East Brady borough is valued at $139,700, 54% below the national figure and 28% below the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $601 a month, 57.3% below the national figure, or roughly $7,212 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 12.3% 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 2.4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 64.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. 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.
