Cold Spring village, NY in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Cold Spring village is a small town in New York, with 1,868 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #662 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 48% of them. The median age here is 41.5 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 Cold Spring village earn a median of $116,635 a year, 48.5% above the national figure of $78,538 and 27% above 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 8.8% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Cold Spring village is valued at $590,600, 94.7% above the national figure and 87% above the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,734 a month, 23.3% above the national figure, or roughly $20,808 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17.8% 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 5.1×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 64% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. 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.
