Spring City borough, PA in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Spring City borough is a small town in Pennsylvania, with 3,551 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #403 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 79% of them. The median age here is 37.2 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 Spring City borough earn a median of $73,323 a year, 6.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 3% 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 15.2% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

A household on the local median income would put about 16.1% 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 3.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 54.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters.
