Jacksonville CDP, NY in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Jacksonville CDP is a very small community in New York, with 539 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1039 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 19% of them. The median age here is 54.5 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Jacksonville CDP earn a median of $60,000 a year, 23.6% below the national figure of $78,538 and 35% 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 0.7% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Jacksonville CDP is valued at $190,600, 37.2% below the national figure and 40% below the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,583 a month, 12.6% above the national figure, or roughly $18,996 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 31.7% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is a stretch on median earnings. 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. 76% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. 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.

Jacksonville CDP is the unusual combination of expensive to rent and cheap to buy: rent takes 31.7% of median income while homes cost only 3.2× it. Where that pattern shows up, the gap is normally down to down-payment and credit barriers rather than price. A median age of 54.5 puts Jacksonville CDP well into retirement-weighted territory, which pulls median household income down even where household wealth is high, because retirement draws are counted differently from wages.

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.
