Delhi, NY population, income and ZIP codes

Delhi village is a small town in New York, with 3,185 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #478 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 63% of them. The median age here is 21.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Delhi village earn a median of $60,521 a year, 22.9% below the national figure of $78,538 and 34% below the $91,806 median for the 847 New York cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 16.6% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Delhi village is valued at $195,600, 35.5% below the national figure and 38% below the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $941 a month, 33.1% below the national figure, or roughly $11,292 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.7% 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 3.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 48.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

A median age of 21.1 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.

No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
