Wyomissing, PA population, income and ZIP codes

Wyomissing borough is a mid-size town in Pennsylvania, with 11,100 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #74 of 2,002 ranked by population — larger than 96% of them. The median age here is 50.4 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Wyomissing borough earn a median of $88,214 a year, 12.3% above the national figure of $78,538 and 24% above 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 6% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Wyomissing borough is valued at $326,800, 7.7% above the national figure and 69% above the $193,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,746 a month, 24.2% above the national figure, or roughly $20,952 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 23.8% 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 3.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 67.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. 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.

A median age of 50.4 puts Wyomissing borough 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.
