Living in Deposit



Deposit is a very small village located in the state of New York. With a population of 1,421 people and two associated neighborhoods, Deposit is the 691st largest community in New York. Much of the housing stock in Deposit was built prior to World War II, making it one of the older and more historic villages in the country.

Of important note, Deposit is also a village of artists. Deposit has more artists, designers and people working in media than 90% of the communities in America. This concentration of artists helps shape Deposit’s character.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 10.75% 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.

The village is relatively quiet, having a combination of lower population density and few of those groups of people who have a tendency to be noisy. For example, Deposit has relatively fewer families with younger children, and/or college students. Combined, this makes Deposit a pretty quiet place to live overall. If you like quiet, you will probably enjoy it here.

Being a small village, Deposit does not have a public transit system used by locals to get to and from work.

The percentage of people in Deposit with college degrees is quite a bit lower than the national average for cities and towns of 21.84%: just 12.21% of people over 25 have a bachelor's degree or advanced degree.

The per capita income in Deposit in 2022 was $29,605, which is low income relative to New York, and lower middle income relative to the rest of the US. This equates to an annual income of $118,420 for a family of four. However, Deposit contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.
