Camden village, NY in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Camden village is a small town in New York, with 2,626 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #537 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 58% of them. The median age here is 36.9 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Camden village earn a median of $70,625 a year, 10.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 23% below 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 7.4% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Camden village is valued at $178,800, 41.1% below the national figure and 43% below the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $734 a month, 47.8% below the national figure, or roughly $8,808 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 12.5% 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 2.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 69.4% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. 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.
