North Philipsburg, PA population, income and ZIP codes

North Philipsburg CDP is a very small community in Pennsylvania, with 659 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1208 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 39% of them. The median age here is 68.7 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 North Philipsburg CDP earn a median of $46,003 a year, 41.4% below the national figure of $78,538 and 35% below 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 6.3% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in North Philipsburg CDP is valued at $88,500, 70.8% below the national figure and 54% below the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $788 a month, 44% below the national figure, or roughly $9,456 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.6% 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 1.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 48.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

A median age of 68.7 puts North Philipsburg CDP 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. With 659 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare North Philipsburg CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

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.
