West Danby CDP, NY in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
West Danby CDP is a very small community in New York, with 246 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #1188 of 1,292 ranked by population — larger than 8% of them. The median age here is 23.4 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 West Danby CDP earn a median of $28,766 a year, 63.4% below the national figure of $78,538 and 69% 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 10.2% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in West Danby CDP is valued at not published, while median gross rent runs not published a month. 14.2% 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.
A median age of 23.4 means a large student or early-career population; income medians in places like this understate household resources, since many residents are supported from outside the address. With 246 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare West Danby CDP against its county rather than against national figures.
The Census withheld home value, gross rent for West Danby CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
