ZIP 13452 vs ZIP 13410

This side-by-side compares ZIP 13452 (Saint Johnsville, NY) and ZIP 13410 (Nelliston, NY) using the same Census ACS 5-Year table fields for both — no averages swapped in, no national proxies. ZIP 13452 has a population of 4,629 at 23 people per square mile, while ZIP 13410 has 241 at 846 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 13452 reports a median household income of $60,327 against — in ZIP 13410, with per-capita income of $32,279 vs $31,512. The share of adults holding a bachelor's degree or higher is 15.2% in 13452 and 13.6% in 13410. Poverty rate reads 18.4% vs 30.7%, and unemployment 6.0% vs 6.7% — these four fields alone drive most of the difference in the scorecard grades you will see for each ZIP.

Housing separates these two ZIPs further: median home value sits at $106,200 in 13452 versus $73,000 in 13410, with median rent of $763 and $623 per month respectively. Homeownership rate is 78.2% vs 63.0%. 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.
