The Mid-Hudson Valley regional profile provides a wealth of information at your fingertips to help inform decision-making and planning in order to drive positive community change for the seven-county region as a whole.
This web tool includes 59 separate indicators that provide insight into the trends of our community over time. Together, the collection of community indicators tells the story about where we are as a community and the direction in which we are heading.
In recent years, this project has expanded to cover additional counties (Columbia, Greene, Putnam and Sullivan) and added indicators, including data on drug-related deaths that show the spike in opioid abuse, food insecurity and the share of our residents who are foreign-born.
For a quick, at-a-glance graphic summary of indicators for key geographies, visit the Dashboard. Select the county or local area of interest and display all indicators with available data, or a subset of your choosing. Use the filter to select as many indicators as you like to create a customized Dashboard.
The Mid-Hudson Valley continues to be a relatively strong region of New York State with below average poverty and above average incomes. But inflationary pressures and the reductions in federal health, nutrition and other support programs are likely to make living there harder for some. Median household income in the region has increased modestly over the last decade, and housing is a keen affordability challenge.
On the positive side, jobs in the region are increasing, and growing economic sectors include traditionally high-paying ones such as Financial Activities and Professional and Business Services.
The Mid-Hudson Valley Community Profiles website has recently been updated with new data on education, health, housing, poverty, and more. View a virtual tour of the Mid-Hudson Valley Community Profiles website and an overview of the most recent trends in critical data points including drug overdoses, living wages, and more.
