Garden View CDP, PA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Garden View CDP is a small town in Pennsylvania, with 2,510 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #560 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 72% of them. The median age here is 37.3 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 Garden View CDP earn a median of $46,528 a year, 40.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and 35% 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 10.2% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Garden View CDP is valued at $128,800, 57.5% below the national figure and 33% below the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,018 a month, 27.6% below the national figure, or roughly $12,216 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 26.3% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 60.6% 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.
