Webster village, NY in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Webster village is a mid-size town in New York, with 5,734 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #326 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 74% of them. The median age here is 41.2 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 Webster village earn a median of $66,584 a year, 15.2% below the national figure of $78,538 and 27% below the $91,806 median for the 847 New York cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 15.2% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Webster village is valued at $195,800, 35.5% below the national figure and 38% below the $315,800 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,226 a month, 12.8% below the national figure, or roughly $14,712 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 22.1% 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 2.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 37% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. 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.
