Highest Black household income, New York cities
New York cities ranked by the median income of households with a Black or African American householder (2024 American Community Survey). Places with fewer than 1,000 Black residents are excluded. This list covers the 98 cities in New York that qualify, ranked against each other statewide. 3 cities are tied at the $250,000+ ceiling. The median across all 98 is $92,516. Biggest climber in the top 100 since 2020: Monticello, NY, up 35 places to #57.
The US Census Bureau caps reported median household income at $250,000 for 2024. Places shown as “$250,000+” exceed that ceiling by an amount the Census does not publish, so their exact values (and the order among them) cannot be distinguished.
