ZIP 19030 in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

ZIP 19030 is a mid-size town in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, with 12,310 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #347 of 1,833 ranked by population — larger than 81% of them. The median age here is 44.1 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 ZIP 19030 earn a median of $92,411 a year, 17.7% above the national figure of $78,538. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 7.7% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 19030 is valued at $344,300, 13.5% above the national figure, while median gross rent runs $1,259 a month, 10.5% below the national figure, or roughly $15,108 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 16.3% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. 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. 76.7% 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.

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 19030 in context

How 19030 sits inside Bucks County and Pennsylvania.

ZIP 19030 is tabulated inside Bucks County, Pennsylvania, one of 48 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 19030 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 19030 reports a median household income of $92,411, 18% below the $112,038 county median, and 32% above the $70,000 typical PA ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $344,300, 24% below the county figure and 84% above the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at $1,259 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 19030 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 19030 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.
