Weigelstown, PA population, income and ZIP codes

Weigelstown CDP is a mid-size town in Pennsylvania, with 15,401 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #44 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 97% of them. The median age here is 43.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in Weigelstown CDP earn a median of $70,333 a year, 10.4% below the national figure of $78,538 and within a couple of points of 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 7.3% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Weigelstown CDP is valued at $202,100, 33.4% below the national figure and 5% above the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,358 a month, 3.4% below the national figure, or roughly $16,296 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 23.2% 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 2.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 84.9% 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. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
