Strabane CDP, PA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Strabane CDP is a very small community in Pennsylvania, with 569 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1288 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 35% of them. The median age here is 35.4 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 Strabane CDP earn a median of $53,775 a year, 31.5% 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 0.4% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Strabane CDP is valued at $169,800, 44% below the national figure and 12% below the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $807 a month, 42.6% below the national figure, or roughly $9,684 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18% 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 3.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 74.5% 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.
