Castleton-on-Hudson, NY population, income and ZIP codes

Castleton-on-Hudson village is a small town in New York, with 1,524 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #727 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 43% of them. The median age here is 42 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 Castleton-on-Hudson village earn a median of $64,167 a year, 18.3% below the national figure of $78,538 and 30% below the $91,806 median for the 847 New York cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 11.7% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Castleton-on-Hudson village is valued at $210,800, 30.5% below the national figure and 33% below the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,148 a month, 18.3% below the national figure, or roughly $13,776 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 21.5% 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 3.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 68.1% 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.
