Hamlin CDP, NY in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Hamlin CDP is a mid-size town in New York, with 5,041 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #355 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 72% of them. The median age here is 35.8 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 Hamlin CDP earn a median of $69,142 a year, 12% below the national figure of $78,538 and 25% 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 12.3% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Hamlin CDP is valued at $131,300, 56.7% below the national figure and 58% below the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $882 a month, 37.3% below the national figure, or roughly $10,584 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 15.3% 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 1.9×, 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. 84.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. 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.
