North Gates CDP, NY in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

North Gates CDP is a mid-size town in New York, with 10,014 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #202 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 84% of them. The median age here is 42.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 North Gates CDP earn a median of $75,257 a year, 4.2% below the national figure of $78,538 and 18% 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 7.7% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in North Gates CDP is valued at $153,500, 49.4% below the national figure and 51% below the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,033 a month, 26.5% below the national figure, or roughly $12,396 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 16.5% 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 2×, 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. 59.1% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
