Grade cut points, score out of 100: A from 63.7 · B from 54.7 · C from 42.4 · D from 28.1. This ZIP's 40.3 sits in the D band, which opens at 28.1 and ends below 42.4. The cut points are the model's own, read from the published ZIP dataset, and are identical for every ZIP Code area.
The four category scores that combine into the number above, on the model's own 0 to 100 score scale. These bars are not percentiles: for where those scores place this ZIP Code against every other scored one, see how this ZIP ranks below.

Watch: elevated stability/risk signals. survey margins of error are wider here (data confidence: moderate).
Cash Flow & Affordability was scored using a measured (Zillow) home value, giving an effective price-to-income of 4.03× and tax burden of 2.15% of value: the number this category's score is actually based on, which can differ from the ACS survey value shown elsewhere on this page.
A transparent screening score, not a return forecast. Affordable, higher-yield markets can score well when demand, liquidity, low vacancy, reliable government data and a growing surrounding market support them. Categories labeled “context” use official county/place data, never presented as ZIP-level observation. ZIP and city scores are not directly comparable. See how this score works.
How this ZIP ranks: nationally & in-state
Each bar places this ZIP against all 20,132 scored ZIP Codes nationally.Each bar places this ZIP against the 1,100 scored ZIP Codes in PA. The marker is this ZIP and further right is more favorable to an investor; the tick is the median. Every position here is a percentile: the 0–100 scores and the grade they earn are stated once, in the card above, and this card states once where those same five numbers place this ZIP Code.

Percentiles are the frozen model's own numbers among scored ZIP Codes (deterministic competition ranking); an unreliable or thin-peer in-state comparison reads “Not available,” never zero. All underlying figures are ACS survey estimates with margins of error. The comparability caveat and the method link for this score are stated once, in the card above.

Every figure here is the frozen model’s own national percentile for one factor, read from the published ZIP dataset: 15 of the 15 factors this model defines were available for this ZIP Code. Higher is the direction the model treats as more favourable to a rental investor; population scale and renter-household depth are size, not quality. Each category score is the plain average of its own percentiles above; the overall score combines those four at the weights shown. The percentiles are published rounded to whole numbers, so averaging the printed figures lands a fraction of a point from the published score. This ZIP’s weakest category is 22, below the model’s published floor of 30, so the model applies its floor penalty and the overall score is lower than those four weighted together would be on their own. Nothing on this panel is recomputed here, and a factor percentile is not a score.

Each point is one ACS 5-year estimate on the same 2020-Census ZCTA boundary. Adjacent releases overlap, so the release-to-release differences are not independent annual market movement.

Measured market data
Measured observations for this ZIP Code, published beside the government survey figures above rather than replacing them. They measure different things and will legitimately disagree; the reconciliation below states on which axis, one axis at a time, instead of leaving a reader to guess. ZORI does not correct the ACS rent; neither is a better version of the other. Monthly series, revised in recent months, observed 2026-07, not live.

|---|---|---|
| Typical home value | $134,600±$25,000, the Census Bureau’s published 90% margin of error | $197,405no published margin of error |
| Methodology typical home value | The median of what owners themselves estimate their own home to be worth, across owner-occupied homes only. | A smoothed index of the typical value of homes in the middle tier (35th to 65th percentile) of the local stock, whether or not they sold. |
| Typical rent | $1,155/mo±$250, the Census Bureau’s published 90% margin of error | $1,575/mono published margin of error |
| Methodology typical rent | The median gross rent sitting tenants actually pay, including utilities, across the whole occupied rental stock. | An index of the rent landlords are asking on units newly listed for rent: what is on the market now, not what sitting tenants pay. |
| Gross rent yield | 10.30%no published margin of error | 9.57%no published margin of error |
| Methodology gross rent yield | The two survey medians above, divided. Renter gross rent against owner-occupied value is different housing stock, so this is a proxy and not a cap rate. | The two measured indices above, divided (ZORI × 12 ÷ ZHVI): asking rent against a whole-stock value index. |

The index for typical home value is $62,805 higher than the survey estimate, whose own 90% margin of error is ±$25,000: the two are separated by more than survey sampling error alone accounts for. The index for typical rent is $420/mo higher than the survey estimate, whose own 90% margin of error is ±$250: the two are separated by more than survey sampling error alone accounts for. A gap of either size is expected when the source, vintage, methodology and geography all differ, and is not evidence that either figure is wrong. Neither figure corrects the other, and no margin of error is implied for the index, which publishes none.

Measured value-growth signal: 53 of 100: this ZIP Code area ranks #9,040 of 19,419 ZIP Codes with a measured 3-year value growth rate. This is a separate national signal, published beside the overall score and deliberately not folded into it.

Market Negotiation Leverage
Strong seller leverage (18th percentile among scored ZIP Codes)
Derived from Zillow's market-heat index for this ZIP, inverted (a cooler market means more room for a buyer to negotiate). 10 active listings. This is a cross-sectional snapshot (how this ZIP compares to every other tracked ZIP today), not a seasonal or historical baseline for this specific ZIP (no multi-year time series exists to support that claim). Not a prediction of what any specific seller will accept. See how this is calculated.

Underwrite with these as starting points
Opening a calculator pre-loads the ACS median owner value and median gross rent as a survey-level starting point; every calculator input is editable. Owner-occupied median value and renter median gross rent describe different housing stock: the median-valued home is not the typical rental, so this is a screen, not a listing, appraisal, asking rent, cap rate, or forecast. Bring your own entry price and rent.
ZIP Codes bordering 19022
4 ZIP Code areas share a land boundary with 19022 in the official Census 2020 ZCTA map, ordered by shared-boundary length, not ZIP-number proximity or driving distance. 4 of them are in CE’s ranked set and are listed below, each with its own Rental Investor ZIP Score, grade and national rank, read from the same published dataset as this page. The rest are counted here and searchable from the ZIP Code explorer. A neighbour’s score is a score for that area, never for 19022, and this list is ordered by border length, so it is not a ranking and no neighbour is called best.

Class: survey = ACS estimate (with margin of error); derived = computed from ACS. The survey gross-rent yield is a proxy (renter gross rent vs owner-occupied value, different housing stock; ACS top-codes very high values/rents) and is not a cap rate.
