Folsom CDP, PA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Folsom CDP is a mid-size town in Pennsylvania, with 8,298 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #131 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 93% of them. The median age here is 38.9 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Folsom CDP earn a median of $100,544 a year, 28% above the national figure of $78,538 and 41% above the $71,118 median for the 982 Pennsylvania cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 10.3% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Folsom CDP is valued at $268,500, 11.5% below the national figure and 39% above the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,421 a month, 1.1% above the national figure, or roughly $17,052 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17% 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. 79.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
