Fonda village, NY in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Fonda village is a very small community in New York, with 562 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1024 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 20% of them. The median age here is 39.6 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 Fonda village earn a median of $54,375 a year, 30.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and 41% below 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 9.8% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Fonda village is valued at $100,000, 67% below the national figure and 68% below the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,042 a month, 25.9% below the national figure, or roughly $12,504 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 23% 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 1.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 67.2% 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.
