Riverside village, NY population, income and ZIP codes

Riverside village is a very small community in New York, with 591 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1014 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 21% of them. The median age here is 31.9 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 Riverside village earn a median of $76,071 a year, 3.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 17% below the $91,806 median for the 847 New York cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 14.2% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Riverside village is valued at $113,800, 62.5% below the national figure and 64% below the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,591 a month, 13.2% above the national figure, or roughly $19,092 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 25.1% 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 1.5×, 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. 92.3% 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.
