Murrysville, PA population, income and ZIP codes

Murrysville municipality is a mid-size town in Pennsylvania, with 20,839 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #32 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 98% of them. The median age here is 50.9 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Murrysville municipality earn a median of $120,685 a year, 53.7% above the national figure of $78,538 and 70% 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 3.9% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Murrysville municipality is valued at $316,400, 4.3% above the national figure and 64% above the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,495 a month, 6.3% above the national figure, or roughly $17,940 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 14.9% 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 2.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 91.9% 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. 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 50.9 puts Murrysville municipality 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.
