How Shiloh compares. Among the 100 largest places in Pennsylvania, Shiloh is #73 by population, #87 for rent (#1 = cheapest), #21 for household income (#1 = highest), #24 for homeownership (#1 = highest). Its county, York County, is #16 of 67 counties for average pay ($62,427).
Shiloh has 11,246 residents (ACS 2020–2024), about 0.1% of the population of Pennsylvania. It covers 4 square miles of land, which works out to roughly 2,637 people per square mile. The median age is 48.0, 17% older than the state median (48.0 against 40.9). It is a census-designated place: a community the Census Bureau counts as a unit, without a city government of its own, so services such as police, roads and zoning usually come from the county.
The median gross rent is $1,530 a month (rent plus utilities), 27% above the state median ($1,530 against $1,209). Over a year that is 19.5% of the median household income. US housing guidance treats housing as affordable when it takes 30% of income or less, so the typical household is under that line. The median home value is $245,600, which is 2.6 times the median household income ($94,324); a ratio under 4 usually means ownership is within reach for many households. 68.4% of households own their home, about the same as the state average (68.4% against 69.3%).
The York-Hanover, PA metropolitan area has 183,590 jobs in the BLS wage survey, and the median pay across all occupations is $48,170 a year, 6% below the national median ($48,170 against $50,980). The biggest occupation groups are transportation and material moving (26,510 jobs, median $44,290); office and administrative support (18,680 jobs, median $46,020); production (18,020 jobs, median $47,610). The area is most specialised in production (1.8 times) and transportation and material moving (1.6 times), where the share of workers is well above the national share. The best-paying groups with at least 5,000 jobs are management ($104,180) and healthcare practitioners and technical ($80,570). In 2026M09 the unemployment rate of York County was 3.0%. 62.6% of residents aged 16 and over are in the labour force. The city lies in York County; its jobs, pay by industry and GDP are on the county page.
Among workers, 78.9% drive alone, 0.2% use public transit, 0.2% walk, 14.6% work from home. 13.3% of workers commute 45 minutes or more, 19% below the state average (13.3% against 16.4%).
25.8% of adults aged 25 and over hold a bachelor's degree or higher, 27% below the state share (25.8% against 35.2%). 7.7% of residents were born outside the United States, about the same as the state share (7.7% against 7.7%). The poverty rate is 1.3%, 89% below the state rate (1.3% against 11.7%).
The warmest month is Jul, averaging 76°F (24.4°C), and the coolest is Jan at 28°F (-2.1°C). About 1,165 mm (46 inches) of precipitation falls in a year; Sep is the wettest month (118 mm) and Jan the driest (71 mm). These values come from NASA satellite-based climatology on a grid of about 50 km, so they describe the wider area, not a weather station in the city.
