Danby, NY population, income and ZIP codes

Danby CDP is a very small community in New York, with 440 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1086 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 15% of them. The median age here is 54.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Danby CDP earn a median of not published a year. 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 0% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Danby CDP is valued at $294,300, 3% below the national figure and 7% below the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $943 a month, 32.9% below the national figure, or roughly $11,316 across a full year. 79.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. 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.

A median age of 54.3 puts Danby CDP well into retirement-weighted territory, which pulls median household income down even where household wealth is high, because retirement draws are counted differently from wages. With 440 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Danby CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld household income for Danby CDP 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.
