Woodbury, PA population, income and ZIP codes

Woodbury borough is a very small community in Pennsylvania, with 372 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1489 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 25% of them. The median age here is 27.4 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 Woodbury borough earn a median of $42,500 a year, 45.9% below the national figure of $78,538 and 40% below the $71,118 median for the 982 Pennsylvania cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 40.3% 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 Woodbury borough is valued at $140,400, 53.7% below the national figure and 27% below the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,057 a month, 24.8% below the national figure, or roughly $12,684 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 29.8% 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 3.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 83.1% 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 27.4 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 372 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Woodbury borough against its county rather than against national figures.

No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. 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.
