Manchester village, NY in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Manchester village is a small town in New York, with 1,655 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #706 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 45% of them. The median age here is 39.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. 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 Manchester village earn a median of $61,172 a year, 22.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 33% 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 10.8% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Manchester village is valued at $106,500, 64.9% below the national figure and 66% below the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,188 a month, 15.5% below the national figure, or roughly $14,256 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 23.3% 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 1.7×, 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. 80.3% 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.
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.
