Hudson Falls village, NY in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Hudson Falls village is a mid-size town in New York, with 7,401 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #258 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 80% of them. The median age here is 43 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Hudson Falls village earn a median of $62,237 a year, 20.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and 32% below the $91,806 median for the 847 New York cities we cover. 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 13.6% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Hudson Falls village is valued at $158,700, 47.7% below the national figure and 50% below the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $876 a month, 37.7% below the national figure, or roughly $10,512 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 16.9% 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 2.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 60.8% 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.
