Living costs & local context

Budget context for New York

Median monthly gross rent$1,6212020–2024 ACS · 2024 dollars · margin of error ±$7
Median household income$85,9742020–2024 ACS · 2024 dollars · margin of error ±$402
Resident population estimate19,852,3662020–2024 ACS
New York price level107.9BEA regional price parity · 2024 · US = 100

Gross rent combines contract rent with the estimated average monthly cost of tenant-paid utilities and fuels. It describes occupied rental housing, not current asking rents, student accommodation or the cost of a room in a shared home. Household income is not an individual worker’s salary.

The state price index compares the overall price of goods and services with the national average. An index of 107.9 is approximately 7.9% above the national price level. It is context for planning, not a multiplier for a personal budget or a cost-adjusted salary.

Sources: 2024 ACS five-year public summary files, tables B25064, B19013 and B01003; BEA 2024 regional price parities. Retrieved September 9, 2026. Census place matches use a unique name within a state; school postal cities and Census boundaries are not interchangeable. Unavailable estimates are omitted.

Plan your study and travel

  • Confirm every teaching and placement address, not just the institution’s administrative address.
  • Check the commute at actual class times, including the journey home from evening sessions.
  • Ask whether practical or clinical sessions need daytime attendance even if the classroom teaching is flexible.
  • Compare your complete training budget, including tools, transport and time away from paid work.
