Moscow profile


Living in Moscow



Moscow is a very small borough located in the state of Pennsylvania. With a population of 2,017 people and two associated neighborhoods, Moscow is the 642nd largest community in Pennsylvania.

Also of interest is that Moscow has more people living here who work in computers and math than 95% of the places in the US.

Telecommuters are a relatively large percentage of the workforce: 9.09% of people work from home. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce it is high relative to the nation. These workers are often telecommuters who work in knowledge-based, white-collar professions. For example, Silicon Valley has large numbers of people who telecommute. Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.

Because of many things, Moscow is a very good place for families to consider. With an enviable combination of good schools, low crime, college-educated neighbors who tend to support education because of their own experiences, and a high rate of home ownership in predominantly single-family properties, Moscow really has some of the features that families look for when choosing a good community to raise children. Is Moscow perfect? Of course not, and if you like frenetic nightlife, it will be far from your cup of tea. But overall this is a solid community, with many things to recommend it as a family-friendly place to live.

The citizens of Moscow are among the most well-educated in the nation: 41.81% of adults in Moscow have a bachelor's degree or even advanced degree, whereas the average US city has 21.84% holding at least a bachelor's degree.

The per capita income in Moscow in 2022 was $41,155, which is upper middle income relative to Pennsylvania and the nation. This equates to an annual income of $164,620 for a family of four. However, Moscow contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.
