Delhi is a very small village located in the state of New York. With a population of 3,362 people and two associated neighborhoods, Delhi is the 501st largest community in New York. Much of the housing stock in Delhi was built prior to World War II, making it one of the older and more historic villages in the country.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 17.79% 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.

Delhi is a small town where college students really create the town feel and character. So many small towns have lost population over the last 20-30 years that having the local college presence in the Delhi area, with all of the energy of the students filling area dorms and apartments each fall, really helps Delhi maintain a good economy.

One of the benefits of Delhi is that there is very little traffic. The average commute to work is 14.19 minutes, which is substantially less than the national average. Not only does this mean that the drive to work is less aggravating, but noise and pollution levels are lower as a result.

Delhi is one of the most well-educated cities in the nation. 41.93% of adults in Delhi have at least a bachelor's degree. Compare that to the average community in America, which has just 21.84% with a bachelor's degree or higher.

The per capita income in Delhi in 2022 was $23,621, which is low income relative to New York and the nation. This equates to an annual income of $94,484 for a family of four. However, Delhi contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.

Delhi is a somewhat ethnically-diverse village. The people who call Delhi home describe themselves as belonging to a variety of racial and ethnic groups. The greatest number of Delhi residents report their race to be White, followed by Asian. Important ancestries of people in Delhi include German, English, Irish, Italian, and Norwegian.

The most common language spoken in Delhi is English. Other important languages spoken here include Spanish and Slavic languages.
