Cornwall-on-Hudson village, NY in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Cornwall-on-Hudson village is a small town in New York, with 3,046 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #495 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 61% of them. The median age here is 44.7 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 Cornwall-on-Hudson village earn a median of $150,288 a year, 91.4% above the national figure of $78,538 and 64% above the $91,806 median for the 847 New York cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 2.4% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

A household on the local median income would put about 11.6% 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 3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 74.8% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
