Liberty, NY population, income and ZIP codes

Liberty village is a mid-size town in New York, with 5,083 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #353 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 72% of them. The median age here is 33.2 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 Liberty village earn a median of $49,125 a year, 37.5% below the national figure of $78,538 and 46% 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 17.7% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Liberty village is valued at $150,500, 50.4% below the national figure and 52% 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 21.5% 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 3.1×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 34.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

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.
