Swartzville CDP, PA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Swartzville CDP is a small town in Pennsylvania, with 1,804 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #701 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 65% of them. The median age here is 53.2 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Swartzville CDP earn a median of $105,481 a year, 34.3% above the national figure of $78,538 and 48% 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 1.7% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Swartzville CDP is valued at $283,900, 6.4% below the national figure and 47% above the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 97.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
A median age of 53.2 puts Swartzville CDP well into retirement-weighted territory, which pulls median household income down even where household wealth is high, because retirement draws are counted differently from wages.
The Census withheld gross rent for Swartzville CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
