About this statistic

New York median household income stood at $82,095 in 2023, up 3.2% on the previous period.

New York median household income, from the Census Bureau's American Community Survey one-year estimates. The ACS is the country's largest household survey, and these state-level figures are the standard reference for income and housing costs below the national level. The series runs from 2010, when the figure recorded $54,148, to $82,095 in 2023, up from $79,557 the period before.

Survey estimates carry margins of error that grow as geography shrinks; at the state level they are small but real. The 2020 pandemic disrupted collection, which is why some series skip or flag that year.

Frequently asked questions
Why is 2020 missing or unusual?
Pandemic disruption forced the Census Bureau to replace the standard 2020 ACS one-year estimates with experimental ones. Many series simply skip the year.
Are these counts or estimates?
Estimates from the American Community Survey, benchmarked to census counts. They carry sampling error, which is small at the state level.
