Glasgow borough, PA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Glasgow borough is a very small community in Pennsylvania, with 96 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1891 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 5% of them. The median age here is 27.7 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 Glasgow borough earn a median of $66,563 a year, 15.2% below the national figure of $78,538 and 6% below 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 4.3% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Glasgow borough is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs $933 a month, 33.6% below the national figure, or roughly $11,196 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 16.8% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. 62.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
A median age of 27.7 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 96 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Glasgow borough against its county rather than against national figures.
The Census withheld home value for Glasgow borough because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
