Lyon Mountain, NY population, income and ZIP codes

Lyon Mountain CDP is a very small community in New York, with 240 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1193 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 7% of them. The median age here is 31.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. 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 Lyon Mountain CDP earn a median of not published a year. 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 21.7% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.

The typical owner-occupied home in Lyon Mountain CDP is valued at $40,900, 86.5% below the national figure and 87% below the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $625 a month, 55.5% below the national figure, or roughly $7,500 across a full year. 56.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

With 240 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Lyon Mountain CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld household income for Lyon Mountain CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
