Wrightstown Township by the numbers.
Census-cited figures for Wrightstown Township from the American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates (2020–2024).

Three bills. Three offices. County-published millage.
Bucks County property owners receive separate county, municipal, and school district tax bills. The rates below

any interim adjustments. The county bill is what the offices say it is, not what a website computes.
Walkable downtowns, the Route 611 retail spine, and Central Bucks School District demand — the county's quality-of-life premium.
Buyer framing (curated): School district reputation, Route 611 retail, and Warminster rail access drive buyer demand. Compare Warrington, Doylestown, and Warwick before you anchor on one listing.
Assessment, deed, parcel, and municipal contact checks belong in every serious housing decision. These links route to official or curated public-source hubs — not secondary aggregators.
Production housing intelligence means honest gaps — not filler. These items still need official source input or licensed data before they can be published as facts.

Ranks and county medians are computed across all Bucks County municipalities reporting each measure in the

a high median home value and a long commute are both rank 1 at the top of their columns.
Similar towns
If Wrightstown Township fits, look at these next.
Closest matches on home value, income, rent, owner-occupancy and commute — the towns a buyer weighing Wrightstown Township usually ends up comparing it against.
The township maintains local parks and preserved open space around its villages — Anchor, Penns Park, and Wycombe.
Roads
Route 413 and Route 232
413 links the township to Newtown and Buckingham; 232 runs the Wycombe side toward Richboro and Northampton.
Wrightstown is the rural seam between the Newtown area and Central Bucks: three crossroads
villages — Anchor, Penns Park, Wycombe — surrounded by preserved farmland, with Council Rock
schools and Tyler State Park’s trail network both effectively next door. For buyers who want
Newtown-corridor schools without Newtown-corridor density, this is the address that delivers
it.
The supply is thin and turns over slowly; when something lists, it’s usually acreage or a
village home, rarely a subdivision. Everything is a drive — 413 to Newtown for groceries and
dinner, 232 toward Northampton — and that’s precisely the open-space bargain the township has
protected for decades.
A Wrightstown Township address is presumed to sit in Council Rock SD, but boundaries split streets — confirm the assignment for the exact parcel.
