Fort Littleton, PA

The affordability dashboard for Fort Littleton, PA aggregates Census ACS 5-Year Estimates across 1 ZIP code covering 289 residents, then layers in county-level federal data to produce an overall grade of F (26/100). The headline inputs are median household income of $38,355, median home value of $192,900, median rent of $563 per month, and 9.1% of adults holding a bachelor's degree or higher. These four metrics alone explain most of the variance between city dashboards.

Cross-agency feeds widen the picture beyond Census demographics. HUD publishes a Fair Market Rent for a 2-bedroom in this county at $973 per month (studio $708, 1BR $751, 3BR $1,167, 4BR $1,548).

Reading the overall grade requires reading all seven dimensions together. The score weights Income 20%, Safety 20%, Housing 15%, Rent 15%, Education 10%, Commute 10%, and Childcare 10%, with each sub-score benchmarked against national percentiles rather than state averages — so the grade is genuinely comparable across any city in the country. Pressure points are income, education, housing. Unemployment currently reads 0.0% and poverty 32.8% — numbers worth keeping alongside the headline grade.
