Canastota village, NY in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Canastota village is a small town in New York, with 4,527 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #383 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 70% of them. The median age here is 43.4 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 Canastota village earn a median of $71,250 a year, 9.3% below the national figure of $78,538 and 22% 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 9.9% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Canastota village is valued at $131,500, 56.7% below the national figure and 58% below the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $886 a month, 37% below the national figure, or roughly $10,632 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 14.9% 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 1.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 65.7% 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.
