Tullytown's Lakeside neighborhood in Pennsylvania exhibits a demographic profile characterized by low diversity with a white majority. In 2022, 89% of the population identified as white. The neighborhood experienced population growth from 1,539 residents in 2010 to 1,850 in 2022. Economically, the area improved with median income increasing from $52,290 in 2013 to $73,622 in 2022.
From 2013 to 2022, Lakeside maintained its status as a low diversity, white majority community. The white population decreased from 95% in 2013 to 89% in 2022. The Hispanic population increased from 2% in 2013 to 7% in 2022. Asian and Black populations showed slight increases. These changes suggest a gradual transition towards increased diversity.
The economic trajectory of Lakeside has been positive, with median income increasing by approximately 41% from 2013 to 2022. This trend correlates with the demographic shifts. The increase in median income coincides with a growing Hispanic population. The steady rise in income levels may contribute to maintaining the predominantly white composition while slowly integrating other racial groups. The population growth aligns with improving economic conditions.
The trend of increasing diversity in Lakeside is consistent with broader national patterns of growing multiculturalism in American communities. The increase in median income outpaces national averages for the same period, indicating stronger economic growth than many other areas. The persistence of a white majority in Lakeside, despite slight diversification, suggests the neighborhood may be somewhat insulated from rapid demographic changes seen in more urban or rapidly growing suburban areas.
Lakeside remains a low diversity, white majority community, but shows signs of gradual transition. The neighborhood's economic prosperity appears to be a key factor in attracting a more diverse population and maintaining its current demographic composition. As this trend continues, it will be important to monitor how these changes impact community dynamics, local services, and overall quality of life in the neighborhood.
