Elmsford village, NY in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Elmsford village is a mid-size town in New York, with 5,183 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #348 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 73% of them. The median age here is 34.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Elmsford village earn a median of $116,779 a year, 48.7% above the national figure of $78,538 and 27% above 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 7.5% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Elmsford village is valued at $568,000, 87.2% above the national figure and 80% above the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,564 a month, 82.4% above the national figure, or roughly $30,768 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 26.3% 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 4.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 57.4% 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.
