Coram CDP, NY in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Coram CDP is a small city in New York, with 41,527 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #24 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 98% of them. The median age here is 42.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. 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 Coram CDP earn a median of $107,159 a year, 36.4% above the national figure of $78,538 and 17% 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 8.6% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Coram CDP is valued at $425,300, 40.2% above the national figure and 35% above the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,529 a month, 79.9% above the national figure, or roughly $30,348 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 28.3% 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 4×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 68.4% 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.
