Soudersburg CDP, PA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Soudersburg CDP is a very small community in Pennsylvania, with 478 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1370 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 31% of them. The median age here is 35.6 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 Soudersburg CDP earn a median of $90,494 a year, 15.2% above the national figure of $78,538 and 27% above the $71,118 median for the 982 Pennsylvania cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 0% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Soudersburg CDP is valued at $266,100, 12.3% below the national figure and 38% above the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,400 a month, essentially level with the national figure, or roughly $16,800 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.6% 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 2.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 41.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
