Homes in Allentown
Half the homes in Allentown were built before 1951 (Census ACS median), so the typical house is about 75 years old. Houses that old often still have duct runs sized for an old coal or oil furnace and 60- or 100-amp electrical panels. Both can add cost when new equipment goes in. Owners live in 42.3% of occupied homes, roughly 19,000 households. Homes here have a median value of $188,900 and households a median income of $53,403. Those two numbers drive the labor adjustment in our estimate.
