Living in Montgomery



Montgomery is a very small village located in the state of New York. With a population of 3,761 people and three associated neighborhoods, Montgomery is the 396th largest community in New York.

Also of interest is that Montgomery has more people living here who work in computers and math than 95% of the places in the US.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 9.67% of the workforce. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce this is high compared to the rest of the county. These workers are often telecommuters who work in knowledge-based, white-collar professions. For example, Silicon Valley has large numbers of people who telecommute. Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.

Overall, Montgomery’s crime rate is one of the lowest in the nation, which makes a great place to live if safety is an important concern.

One downside of living in Montgomery, however, is that residents on average have to contend with a long commute, spending on average 31.60 minutes every day commuting to work. However, local public transit is widely used. For those who would prefer to avoid driving entirely and leave their car at home, it may be an option to use the transit instead.

Despite being a small village, Montgomery has a lot of people using the train to get to and from work every day. Most of these people on the train are using it to get to good jobs in other cities.

The education level of Montgomery citizens is substantially higher than the typical US community, as 32.81% of adults in Montgomery have at least a bachelor's degree.

The per capita income in Montgomery in 2022 was $39,378, which is middle income relative to New York, and upper middle income relative to the rest of the US. This equates to an annual income of $157,512 for a family of four. However, Montgomery contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.
