Shanor-Northvue CDP, PA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Shanor-Northvue CDP is a mid-size town in Pennsylvania, with 5,183 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #260 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 87% of them. The median age here is 40.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in Shanor-Northvue CDP earn a median of $98,878 a year, 25.9% above the national figure of $78,538 and 39% 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 3.9% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Shanor-Northvue CDP is valued at $243,600, 19.7% below the national figure and 26% above the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,272 a month, 9.5% below the national figure, or roughly $15,264 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 15.4% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 79.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

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.
