Norfolk CDP, NY in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Norfolk CDP is a small town in New York, with 1,021 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #851 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 34% of them. The median age here is 39.8 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 Norfolk CDP earn a median of $52,411 a year, 33.3% below the national figure of $78,538 and 43% 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 17.9% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Norfolk CDP is valued at $99,000, 67.4% below the national figure and 69% below the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $804 a month, 42.8% below the national figure, or roughly $9,648 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.4% 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 1.9×, 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. 61.7% 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.
