Ivyland, Pennsylvania, is a small community with a population of 1,100 as of 2022, covering 0.35 square miles. The city is categorized as having "Low Diversity" with a white majority of 93% in 2022 and minimal representation from other racial groups. The median income in 2022 was $84,116.
Over the past decade, Ivyland has maintained its status as a "Low Diversity" community. The white population has remained the dominant racial group, never falling below 86%. The Asian population has shown a gradual increase from 3% in 2013 to 5% in 2022, with a peak of 7% in 2021. The Hispanic population has fluctuated between 1% and 4%. The "Two or More Races" category emerged in 2017 and has stabilized at around 2%.
The median income in Ivyland has shown significant fluctuations over the past decade. From 2013 to 2019, it remained relatively stable, ranging from $73,425 to $87,773. A sharp increase occurred in 2020 and 2021, with the median income reaching $120,966 in 2021. However, 2022 saw a substantial decrease back to $84,116.
The economic shifts do not appear to correlate strongly with the minor demographic changes observed. The increase and subsequent decrease in median income between 2020 and 2022 may be related to broader economic factors, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and its aftermath, rather than local demographic shifts.
Ivyland appears to be maintaining its demographic composition with only minor changes. This stability in racial makeup is somewhat atypical compared to many suburban areas that have experienced more significant demographic shifts over the past decade.
Based on observed trends, Ivyland will likely continue to be characterized as a "Low Diversity" community in the near future. The slow but consistent increase in the Asian population and the emergence of a multi-racial category suggest a potential for gradual diversification. If current trends continue, Ivyland might transition towards a "Moderate Diversity" category over the next 10-20 years.
Economically, the recent volatility in median income makes predictions challenging. If the 2022 figure represents a new baseline, moderate growth might be expected in the coming years, barring any major economic disruptions.
Ivyland remains a predominantly white, affluent community. Subtle demographic shifts and recent economic fluctuations suggest the potential for gradual changes in the community's composition and character over the long term.
