Chaumont, NY population, income and ZIP codes

Chaumont village is a very small community in New York, with 640 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #980 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 24% of them. The median age here is 40.8 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 Chaumont village earn a median of $73,750 a year, 6.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 20% below the $91,806 median for the 847 New York cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 12.5% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Chaumont village is valued at $199,000, 34.4% below the national figure and 37% below the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $788 a month, 44% below the national figure, or roughly $9,456 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 12.8% 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 2.7×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 80.1% 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. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.
