Oneida Castle, NY population, income and ZIP codes

Oneida Castle village is a very small community in New York, with 700 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #945 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 26% of them. The median age here is 48.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Oneida Castle village earn a median of $89,792 a year, 14.3% above the national figure of $78,538 and within a couple of points of 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 6.6% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Oneida Castle village is valued at $131,300, 56.7% below the national figure and 58% below the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $908 a month, 35.4% below the national figure, or roughly $10,896 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 12.1% 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 1.5×, 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. 76.9% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
