Franklin Park, PA population, income and ZIP codes

Franklin Park borough is a mid-size town in Pennsylvania, with 15,273 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #45 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 97% of them. The median age here is 41.1 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 Franklin Park borough earn a median of $172,200 a year, 119.3% above the national figure of $78,538 and 142% above 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 0.9% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Franklin Park borough is valued at $467,700, 54.2% above the national figure and 142% above the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,063 a month, 46.7% above the national figure, or roughly $24,756 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 14.4% 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. 92.3% 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.
