Nittany CDP, PA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Nittany CDP is a very small community in Pennsylvania, with 747 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1127 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 43% of them. The median age here is 38.6 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 Nittany CDP earn a median of $65,893 a year, 16.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 7% below 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 16.1% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Nittany CDP is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 90.1% 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.
With 747 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Nittany CDP against its county rather than against national figures.
The Census withheld home value, gross rent for Nittany CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
