Fountain Springs CDP, PA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Fountain Springs CDP is a very small community in Pennsylvania, with 154 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1797 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 10% of them. The median age here is 42.1 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 Fountain Springs CDP earn a median of $60,263 a year, 23.3% below the national figure of $78,538 and 15% below 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 48% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.
The typical owner-occupied home in Fountain Springs CDP is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 100% 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. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

The Census withheld home value, gross rent for Fountain Springs CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography.
