Upper Red Hook CDP, NY in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Upper Red Hook CDP is a very small community in New York, with 285 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1160 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 10% of them. The median age here is 32.4 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 Upper Red Hook CDP earn a median of $126,042 a year, 60.5% above the national figure of $78,538 and 37% above 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 0% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Upper Red Hook CDP is valued at $418,300, 37.9% above the national figure and 32% above the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 55.7% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. 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.

With 285 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare Upper Red Hook CDP against its county rather than against national figures.

The Census withheld gross rent for Upper Red Hook CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography.
