Georgetown (Lancaster Co.), PA population, income and ZIP codes

Georgetown CDP (Lancaster County) is a very small community in Pennsylvania, with 606 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1256 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 37% of them. The median age here is 29.5 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Georgetown CDP (Lancaster County) earn a median of $73,846 a year, 6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 4% 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 8.7% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Georgetown CDP (Lancaster County) is valued at $274,100, 9.7% below the national figure and 42% above the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $861 a month, 38.8% below the national figure, or roughly $10,332 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 14% 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 3.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 70.9% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.

A median age of 29.5 means a large student or early-career population; income medians in places like this understate household resources, since many residents are supported from outside the address. With 606 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Georgetown CDP (Lancaster County) against its county rather than against national figures.

No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. 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.
