Resident population of New York State and counties produced by the U.S. Census Bureau. Estimates are based on decennial census counts (base population), intercensal estimates, postcensal estimates and administrative records. Updates are made annually using current data on births, deaths, and migration to estimate population change. Each year beginning with the most recent decennial census the series is revised, these new series of estimates are called vintages.

A dataset listing the 20 richest counties in New York for 2024, including information on rank, county, population, average income, and median income.

How does your organization use this dataset? What other NYSERDA or energy-related datasets would you like to see on Open NY? Let us know by emailing OpenNY@nyserda.ny.gov. The Low- to Moderate-Income (LMI) New York State (NYS) Census Population Analysis dataset is resultant from the LMI market database designed by APPRISE as part of the NYSERDA LMI Market Characterization Study (https://www.nyserda.ny.gov/lmi-tool). All data are derived from the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey (ACS) 1-year Public Use Microdata Sample (PUMS) files for 2013, 2014, and 2015. Each row in the LMI dataset is an individual record for a household that responded to the survey and each column is a variable of interest for analyzing the low- to moderate-income population. The LMI dataset includes: county/county group, households with elderly, households with children, economic development region, income groups, percent of poverty level, low- to moderate-income groups, household type, non-elderly disabled indicator, race/ethnicity, linguistic isolation, housing unit type, owner-renter status, main heating fuel type, home energy payment method, housing vintage, LMI study region, LMI population segment, mortgage indicator, time in home, head of household education level, head of household age, and household weight. The LMI NYS Census Population Analysis dataset is intended for users who want to explore the underlying data that supports the LMI Analysis Tool. The majority of those interested in LMI statistics and generating custom charts should use the interactive LMI Analysis Tool at https://www.nyserda.ny.gov/lmi-tool. This underlying LMI dataset is intended for users with experience working with survey data files and producing weighted survey estimates using statistical software packages (such as SAS, SPSS, or Stata).

This file contains population estimates by age and sex and single year for census tracts in New York State, from 1990-2016.Iterative proportional fitting was used to develop populations that are consistent with official Census Bureau tract-level populations from 1990, 2000, and 2010 and single-year county-level population estimates published by the SEER program of the National Cancer Institute (https://seer.cancer.gov/popdata/). The Longitudinal Tract Database (LTDB) (https://s4.ad.brown.edu/projects/diversity/researcher/bridging.htm) was used to report populations using 2010 census tract boundaries.In effect, the approach assumes that population growth or reduction at the tract level mirrors what is happening at the county level. This is an improvement over linear or geometric interpolation between census years, but is still far from perfect. Census tracts can undergo rapid year-to-year population change, such as when new housing is constructed or, less frequently, demolished. An extreme example is census tract 1.04 in Westchester County, New York, which had a population of 0 in all 3 census years, as it was located entirely within an industrial area. Since 2010, multiple large high-rise condominiums have been constructed here, so that the population in 2018 is probably now in the thousands, though any estimation or projection method tied to the 2010 census will still count 0 people here. It is conceivable that address files from the United States Postal Service or other sources could be used to capture these kinds of changes; I am unaware of any attempts to do this.The file contains data for 4893 census tracts. It has been restricted to census tracts with nonzero populations in at least one of the census years. There are other census tracts consisting entirely of water, parkland, or non-residential areas as in the example above, which have been omitted.These data are used for the calculation of small-area cancer rates in New York State.

Total Population of Regions, Counties, Towns, and Cities - 2010 and 2020

A dataset listing New York cities by population for 2024.

This file details average daily census figures based on daily counts submitted by each jail to the State Commission of Correction. New York City jail population figures have been reported to the state since 2016, while data for the Non-New York City region and each county outside of the five boroughs are shown annually from 1997 onward. Data are presented in the following categories: Census, Boarded Out, Boarded In, In House, Sentenced, Civil, Federal, Technical Parole Violators, State Readies and Other Unsentenced.

The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. Census tracts are small, relatively permanent statistical subdivisions of a county or equivalent entity, and were defined by local participants as part of the 2020 Census Participant Statistical Areas Program. The Census Bureau delineated the census tracts in situations where no local participant existed or where all the potential participants declined to participate. The primary purpose of census tracts is to provide a stable set of geographic units for the presentation of census data and comparison back to previous decennial censuses. Census tracts generally have a population size between 1,200 and 8,000 people, with an optimum size of 4,000 people. When first delineated, census tracts were designed to be homogeneous with respect to population characteristics, economic status, and living conditions. The spatial size of census tracts varies widely depending on the density of settlement. Physical changes in street patterns caused by highway construction, new development, and so forth, may require boundary revisions. In addition, census tracts occasionally are split due to population growth, or combined as a result of substantial population decline. Census tract boundaries generally follow visible and identifiable features. They may follow legal boundaries such as minor civil division (MCD) or incorporated place boundaries in some States and situations to allow for census tract-to-governmental unit relationships where the governmental boundaries tend to remain unchanged between censuses. State and county boundaries always are census tract boundaries in the standard census geographic hierarchy. In a few rare instances, a census tract may consist of noncontiguous areas. These noncontiguous areas may occur where the census tracts are coextensive with all or parts of legal entities that are themselves noncontiguous. For the 2010 Census, the census tract code range of 9400 through 9499 was enforced for census tracts that include a majority American Indian population according to Census 2000 data and/or their area was primarily covered by federally recognized American Indian reservations and/or off-reservation trust lands; the code range 9800 through 9899 was enforced for those census tracts that contained little or no population and represented a relatively large special land use area such as a National Park, military installation, or a business/industrial park; and the code range 9900 through 9998 was enforced for those census tracts that contained only water area, no land area.

Data shows polygon locations of Potential Environmental Justice Areas (PEJA) and is defined in the PEJA field. PEJA's have been identified based on data from the 2014-2018 5-year American Community Survey (ACS), conducted by the US Census Bureau. Environmental justice efforts focus on improving the environment in communities, specifically minority and low-income communities, and addressing disproportionate adverse environmental impacts that may exist in those communities. The information balloon for each census block group area displays the census block group ID, population, percent minority, percent below poverty level, county, municipality, and a link to more information on the Department of Environmental Conservation's website https://www.dec.ny.gov/public/333.html The data was collected by the US Census Bureau as part of the American Community Survey. Reported income and race/ethnicity data were analyzed by OEJ to determine the presence of Potential Environmental Justice Areas. The designated areas are then considered for additional outreach within the permitting process, for grant eligibility, and for targeted enforcement of Environmental Conservation Law violations. Utilized established methods as originally detailed in the Interim Environmental Justice Policy, US EPA Region 2, December 2000, and recommended by the Environmental Justice Advisory Group, Recommendations for the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation Environmental Justice Program, January 2, 2002. Individual thresholds for low-income populations (statewide), minority populations (rural communities), and minority populations (urban communities) were determined by using ArcGIS 10.3 (used to indicate if census block groups overlapped Census designated urban areas) and IBM SPSS Statistics 26 (to conduct a K-means clustering algorithm on ACS data for the three categories). More detail is provided under processing steps. Service updated annually.

This data collection provides detailed tabulations of 100-percent data items from the 1990 Census of Population and Housing. These tabulations are presented for states, counties, places with 1,000 or more persons, county subdivisions with 1,000 or more persons (selected states), county subdivisions with fewer than 1,000 persons in Metropolitan Statistical Areas/Consolidated MSAs (MSAs/CMSAs) (selected states), and state and county portions of Native American and Alaskan Native areas. Population items include age, race, sex, marital status, Hispanic origin, household type, and household relationship. Housing items include occupancy/vacancy status, tenure, units in structure, contract rent, meals included in rent, value, and number of rooms in housing unit. Crosstabulations include variables such as single year of age by sex, tenure by age of householder, age by group quarters, aggregate value by units in structure, and tenure by number of nonrelatives. The dataset contains both "A" and "B" records. "A" records are provided for each summary level in a geographic area, and are repeated for each geographic component. "B" records repeat the same data for each summary level/geographic component combination, but are tabulated for each of 34 categories of race and Hispanic origin.

In the state of New York, Richmond and Rockland have the highest coronavirus case rates when adjusted for the population of a county. Rockland County had around 1,404 positive cases per 10,000 people as of April 19, 2021.

The five boroughs of NYC With around 894,400 positive infections as of mid-April 2021, New York City has the highest number of coronavirus cases in New York State – this means that there were approximately 1,065 cases per 10,000 people. New York City is composed of five boroughs; each borough is coextensive with a county of New York State. Staten Island is the smallest in terms of population, but it is the borough with the highest rate of COVID-19 cases.

Public warned against complacency The number of new COVID-19 cases in New York City spiked for the second time as the winter holiday season led to an increase in social gatherings. New York State is slowly recovering – indoor dining reopened in February 2021 – but now is not the time for people to become complacent. Despite the positive rollout of vaccines, experts have urged citizens to adhere to guidelines and warned that face masks might have to be worn for at least another year.

As of April 19, 2021, there had been around 27 deaths due to COVID-19 in New York City per 10,000 population. New York has been one of the U.S. states most impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, with New York accounting for the most deaths of any state in the U.S. This statistic shows the death rates for coronavirus (COVID-19) in New York State as of April 19, 2021, by county.

A file containing the average daily census for county for each year displayed (e.g., daily counts are averaged and then divided by the number of days reported for that year). The population report categorizes inmates by type of offender and includes: Sentenced, Civil, Federal, Technical Parole Violators, State Readies and Other Unsentenced.

The death rate in New York City for adults aged 75 years and older was around 4,135 per 100,000 people as of December 22, 2022. The risk of developing more severe illness from COVID-19 increases with age, and the virus also poses a particular threat to people with underlying health conditions.

What is the death toll in NYC? The first coronavirus-related death in New York City was recorded on March 11, 2020. Since then, the total number of confirmed deaths has reached 37,452 while there have been 2.6 million positive tests for the disease. The number of daily new deaths in New York City has fallen sharply since nearly 600 residents lost their lives on April 7, 2020. A significant number of fatalities across New York State have been linked to long-term care facilities that provide support to vulnerable elderly adults and individuals with physical disabilities.

The impact on the counties of New York State Nearly every county in the state of New York has recorded at least one death due to the coronavirus. Outside of New York City, the counties of Nassau, Suffolk, and Westchester have confirmed over 11,500 deaths between them. When analyzing the ratio of deaths to county population, Rockland had one of the highest COVID-19 death rates in New York State in 2021. The county, which has approximately 325,700 residents, had a death rate of around 29 per 10,000 people in April 2021.
