Linglestown, PA population, income and ZIP codes

Linglestown CDP is a mid-size town in Pennsylvania, with 6,747 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #182 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 90% of them. The median age here is 42.2 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in Linglestown CDP earn a median of $89,887 a year, 14.5% above the national figure of $78,538 and 26% above the $71,118 median for the 982 Pennsylvania cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 3.4% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Linglestown CDP is valued at $242,800, 20% below the national figure and 26% above the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,647 a month, 17.1% above the national figure, or roughly $19,764 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 22% 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 2.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 84.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. 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.
