ZIP 12192 vs ZIP 12051

This side-by-side compares ZIP 12192 (West Coxsackie, NY) and ZIP 12051 (Coxsackie, NY) using the same Census ACS 5-Year table fields for both — no averages swapped in, no national proxies. ZIP 12192 has a population of 1,722 at 39 people per square mile, while ZIP 12051 has 7,070 at 128 per square mile. That difference in population size and density alone reshapes how every other metric should be interpreted — a higher-income ZIP with 1,200 residents behaves very differently from one with 45,000.

On income and education, ZIP 12192 reports a median household income of $106,213 against $91,786 in ZIP 12051, with per-capita income of $47,263 vs $30,270.

Poverty rate reads 9.4% vs 6.0%, and unemployment 8.9% vs 5.3% — these four fields alone drive most of the difference in the scorecard grades you will see for each ZIP.

When reading the comparison table below, focus on paired metrics rather than single winners — a ZIP with lower home values and lower income is not strictly "worse" if rent-to-income ratios and commute times land in the same zone. Every value is pulled from the exact same ACS table so the two columns are genuinely comparable.
