Pringle borough, PA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Pringle borough is a very small community in Pennsylvania, with 920 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1030 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 48% of them. The median age here is 43.9 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Pringle borough earn a median of $53,750 a year, 31.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 24% 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 28.2% 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 Pringle borough is valued at $127,300, 58% below the national figure and 34% below the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,144 a month, 18.6% below the national figure, or roughly $13,728 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 25.5% 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 2.4×, 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. 69.9% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
