ZIP 18337 in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

ZIP 18337 is a mid-size town in Pike County, Pennsylvania, with 15,517 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #277 of 1,833 ranked by population — larger than 84% of them. The median age here is 46.5 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 ZIP 18337 earn a median of $89,935 a year, 14.5% above the national figure of $78,538. 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 ZIP 18337 is valued at $284,200, 6.3% below the national figure, while median gross rent runs $1,507 a month, 7.2% above the national figure, or roughly $18,084 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 20.1% 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 3.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 84% 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.

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.

Reading ZIP 18337 in context

How 18337 sits inside Pike County and Pennsylvania.

ZIP 18337 is tabulated inside Pike County, Pennsylvania, one of 14 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 1,833 across Pennsylvania. This is a mid-sized suburban ZIP inside a county that is split across many delivery areas. County assignment on this page follows the largest share of the ZIP's land area, which matters where a delivery route crosses a county line: mail addressed to 18337 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 18337 reports a median household income of $89,935, 15% above the $78,438 county median, and 28% above the $70,000 typical PA ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $284,200, 8% above the county figure and 52% above the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at $1,507 a month, which is why it reads higher than the advertised rent on a listing for the same unit.

Pennsylvania charges 6% statewide, and local governments overlapping 18337 may add county, city or special-district levies on top. We publish the state floor for this ZIP rather than guessing a combined figure, because ZIP boundaries and taxing-district boundaries were drawn for different purposes and do not line up.

Everything above comes from the Census Bureau American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates for this ZIP Code Tabulation Area, with sales tax rates traced to the state revenue agency. Five-year estimates pool sixty months of responses, so they are stable enough to compare 18337 with its neighbours but always trail the current year, and any value the Census suppressed for sample size is shown as unpublished rather than filled in with a model.
