Busti, NY population, income and ZIP codes

Busti CDP is a very small community in New York, with 213 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1207 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 6% of them. The median age here is 42.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. 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 Busti CDP earn a median of not published a year. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 14.6% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Busti CDP is valued at $217,100, 28.4% below the national figure and 31% below the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $655 a month, 53.4% below the national figure, or roughly $7,860 across a full year. 40.2% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

With 213 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Busti CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld household income for Busti CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
