Population: 2,941 · 1 ZIP codes

The affordability dashboard for Conesus, NY aggregates Census ACS 5-Year Estimates across 1 ZIP code covering 2,941 residents, then layers in county-level federal data to produce an overall grade of C- (54/100).

Cross-agency feeds widen the picture beyond Census demographics.

Department of Labor data lists infant center-based childcare at $12,844 per year, consuming 18% of the local median household income.

Reading the overall grade requires reading all seven dimensions together. The score weights Income 20%, Safety 20%, Housing 15%, Rent 15%, Education 10%, Commute 10%, and Childcare 10%, with each sub-score benchmarked against national percentiles rather than state averages — so the grade is genuinely comparable across any city in the country. Pressure points are commute. Unemployment currently reads 7.7% and poverty 14.4% — numbers worth keeping alongside the headline grade.
