New Hartford Center CDP, CT in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
New Hartford Center CDP is a small town in Connecticut, with 1,691 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #132 of 215 ranked by population — larger than 38% of them. The median age here is 32.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.
Households in New Hartford Center CDP earn a median of $78,487 a year, essentially level with the national figure of $78,538 and 19% below the $96,484 median for the 159 Connecticut cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 2% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in New Hartford Center CDP is valued at $216,700, 28.6% below the national figure and 37% below the $344,200 peer median, while median gross rent runs $983 a month, 30.1% below the national figure, or roughly $11,796 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 15% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 67% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
