DOWNTOWN ITHACA Household Income Ithaca & Tompkins County Because Ithaca is a student dominated marketplace, normal U.S. Census statistics tend to give too much weight to student incomes when calculating median household incomes, a standard marker used by retailers to determine marketplace wealth capacity. • There are roughly 30,000 students in Ithaca In 2003, the U.S. Census undertook a special project to split apart the Ithaca/Tompkins County population into student and non-student categories. Based on 2000 Census data, the U.S. Census determined that the 2000 median household income for each group was: • Overall: • Students: • Non-students: $37,272 $16,945 $43,730 Applying these same ratios to 2010 Census data, we have projected the following student and non-student median household incomes: • 5 Mile Ring (Urbanized area) • 25 Mile Ring (Region) $65,737 $63,621 • Students (est.): $29,582 • Non-students (est.):$76,912 While student incomes are notoriously low, they do not reflect student buying capacity, which is often related to the student’s family income. Both Cornell University and Ithaca College have large proportions of students from medium – high income families – with significant spending capacity. Rather than depress buying power, Ithaca area students actually increase it far more than data shows.
