Langhorne borough, PA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Langhorne borough is a small town in Pennsylvania, with 1,564 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #770 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 61% of them. The median age here is 47 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 Langhorne borough earn a median of $95,568 a year, 21.7% above the national figure of $78,538 and 34% 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 11.5% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Langhorne borough is valued at $419,900, 38.4% above the national figure and 117% above the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,367 a month, 2.8% below the national figure, or roughly $16,404 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17.2% 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 4.4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 54.4% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. 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.
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.
