Bohemia CDP, NY in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Bohemia CDP is a mid-size town in New York, with 9,306 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #215 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 83% of them. The median age here is 42.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.
Households in Bohemia CDP earn a median of $120,094 a year, 52.9% above the national figure of $78,538 and 31% above the $91,806 median for the 847 New York 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 8.3% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Bohemia CDP is valued at $506,000, 66.8% above the national figure and 60% above the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,439 a month, 73.5% above the national figure, or roughly $29,268 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 24.4% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 4.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 84.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
