Taylorstown, Pennsylvania, is classified as a "Low Diversity" community. As of 2022, the white population comprises 94% of the total, exceeding the 75% threshold for this classification. The city's current median income is $77,822 with a population of 776.
Over the past decade, Taylorstown has remained in the "Low Diversity" category. The white population has decreased from 99% in 2013 to 94% in 2022. The "two or more races" category has increased from 0% in 2013 to 5% in 2022. The black population has remained stable at around 1-2% throughout the period. These changes indicate a slow trend towards increased diversity, though not enough to change the community's classification.
The median income has fluctuated over the years. It increased from $66,402 in 2013 to $80,000 in 2017, then fluctuated, ending at $77,822 in 2022. The population grew from 613 in 2010 to 941 in 2015, then declined to 776 in 2022. This population trend does not appear strongly correlated with income changes, suggesting other factors may influence population dynamics.
Taylorstown's demographic composition is less diverse than the national average. The U.S. has been trending towards greater diversity, with the white population decreasing as a percentage of the total. Taylorstown's slow pace of diversification suggests it may be somewhat isolated from broader national demographic trends. The median household income in Taylorstown ($77,822 in 2022) is higher than the national median ($70,784 in 2021), indicating a relatively affluent community.
Based on observed trends, Taylorstown is likely to remain in the "Low Diversity" category for the foreseeable future. The slow but steady increase in the "two or more races" category suggests a gradual shift towards slightly more diversity. If this trend continues and accelerates, Taylorstown might eventually transition into a "Moderate Diversity" category, but this would likely take many years at the current rate of change.
Economically, the community appears stable with a high median income. Unless there are significant changes in local industry or housing policies, it is likely that Taylorstown will maintain its current economic status, which may continue to influence its demographic composition by potentially limiting accessibility for more diverse populations.
In conclusion, Taylorstown is showing very slow signs of increased diversity, but remains a predominantly white, affluent community with only gradual demographic changes. The coming years may see a continuation of these slow shifts, but dramatic changes seem unlikely without significant external factors influencing migration patterns or local policies.
