West Waynesburg, PA population, income and ZIP codes

West Waynesburg CDP is a very small community in Pennsylvania, with 431 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1418 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 29% of them. The median age here is 29.8 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 West Waynesburg CDP earn a median of $40,869 a year, 48% below the national figure of $78,538 and 43% 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 7.1% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in West Waynesburg CDP is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs $578 a month, 58.9% below the national figure, or roughly $6,936 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. 39.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

A median age of 29.8 means a large student or early-career population; income medians in places like this understate household resources, since many residents are supported from outside the address. With 431 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare West Waynesburg CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld home value for West Waynesburg 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.
