Fairview CDP, PA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Fairview CDP is a small town in Pennsylvania, with 3,014 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #470 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 76% of them. The median age here is 38.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Fairview CDP earn a median of $84,191 a year, 7.2% above the national figure of $78,538 and 18% 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 7.6% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Fairview CDP is valued at $209,500, 30.9% below the national figure and 8% above the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,159 a month, 17.6% below the national figure, or roughly $13,908 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 16.5% 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. 85.6% 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.
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.
