New Market CDP, PA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
New Market CDP is a very small community in Pennsylvania, with 826 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1079 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 46% of them. The median age here is 36.4 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. 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 New Market CDP earn a median of $41,364 a year, 47.3% below the national figure of $78,538 and 42% below the $71,118 median for the 982 Pennsylvania cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 23.4% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.
The typical owner-occupied home in New Market CDP is valued at $160,200, 47.2% below the national figure and 17% below the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $742 a month, 47.2% below the national figure, or roughly $8,904 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 21.5% 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 3.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 23.8% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. 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.
