Chestnut Ridge, NY population, income and ZIP codes

Chestnut Ridge village is a mid-size town in New York, with 10,464 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #190 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 85% of them. The median age here is 26.8 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in Chestnut Ridge village earn a median of $113,750 a year, 44.8% above the national figure of $78,538 and 24% above 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 6.1% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Chestnut Ridge village is valued at $668,000, 120.2% above the national figure and 112% above the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 5.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 78.2% 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.

A median age of 26.8 means a large student or early-career population; income medians in places like this understate household resources, since many residents are supported from outside the address.

The Census withheld gross rent for Chestnut Ridge village 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.
