Saugerties South CDP, NY in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Saugerties South CDP is a small town in New York, with 2,253 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #585 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 54% of them. The median age here is 41.4 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 Saugerties South CDP earn a median of $81,250 a year, 3.5% above the national figure of $78,538 and 11% 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 8.1% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Saugerties South CDP is valued at $264,000, 13% below the national figure and 16% below the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,423 a month, 1.2% above the national figure, or roughly $17,076 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 21% 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 3.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 64.5% 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.
All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. 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.
