Homewood at Martinsburg, PA population, income and ZIP codes

Homewood at Martinsburg CDP is a very small community in Pennsylvania, with 278 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1608 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 19% of them. The median age here is 84.4 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Homewood at Martinsburg CDP earn a median of $41,563 a year, 47.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 42% below the $71,118 median for the 982 Pennsylvania cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 10.3% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Homewood at Martinsburg CDP is valued at $165,600, 45.4% below the national figure and 14% below the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,191 a month, 15.3% below the national figure, or roughly $14,292 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 34.4% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is a stretch on median earnings. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 10.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

A median age of 84.4 puts Homewood at Martinsburg CDP well into retirement-weighted territory, which pulls median household income down even where household wealth is high, because retirement draws are counted differently from wages. With 278 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Homewood at Martinsburg CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

Every value on this page is published directly by the Census for this area — nothing is modelled or interpolated. 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.
