Cedarbrook's median income has shown an upward trend, increasing from $65,126 in 2013 to $69,165 in 2022, with a peak of $73,960 in 2021. This increase in median income correlates with the subtle demographic shifts, potentially indicating that the neighborhood is attracting a more diverse, middle-class population.

The population has remained relatively stable, fluctuating between about 15,700 and 17,900 residents over the decade. This stability, combined with the increasing median income, suggests that Cedarbrook has maintained its appeal as a residential area while gradually diversifying.

Cedarbrook's demographic evolution reflects broader trends seen in many urban areas across the United States, where historically Black neighborhoods are experiencing gradual diversification. The pace of change in Cedarbrook appears slower than in some other urban neighborhoods, maintaining its character as a predominantly Black community.

The neighborhood's economic resilience, as evidenced by its consistently above-average median income for Philadelphia, distinguishes it from many other majority-Black urban neighborhoods that have faced economic challenges. This economic stability may be a factor in the gradual nature of demographic changes, as the area remains attractive to its long-term residents while slowly drawing in a more diverse population.

Cedarbrook shows early signs of potentially evolving towards greater diversity in the coming years. The increasing percentages of White residents and those identifying as two or more races, coupled with stable economic indicators, suggest a neighborhood that is slowly adapting to broader demographic trends while maintaining its core identity and economic health.
