Parkland, PA population, income and housing data

Parkland CDP is a small town in Pennsylvania, with 1,461 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #803 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 59% of them. The median age here is 35.9 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 Parkland CDP earn a median of $77,199 a year, 1.7% below the national figure of $78,538 and 9% 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 1% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Parkland CDP is valued at $405,100, 33.5% above the national figure and 110% above the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 5.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 93.9% 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. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

The Census withheld gross rent for Parkland 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.
