Washingtonville borough, PA in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Washingtonville borough is a very small community in Pennsylvania, with 233 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1664 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 16% of them. The median age here is 37.6 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 Washingtonville borough earn a median of $41,875 a year, 46.7% below the national figure of $78,538 and 41% below 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 44.3% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.
The typical owner-occupied home in Washingtonville borough is valued at $165,600, 45.4% below the national figure and 14% below the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $861 a month, 38.8% below the national figure, or roughly $10,332 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 24.7% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 35.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.
