The ALICE project by United Way is an effort to quantify and describe the number of households that are struggling financially that are typically not captured by traditional poverty metrics such as the Federal Poverty Level. ALICE stands for Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed. Those living in households below the ALICE threshold are employed and living above the federal poverty line but are still struggling to afford basic essentials. The Household Survival Budget is an estimate of the cost of household essentials.

In Columbia County, both property crime and violet crime rates are lower in 2017 than they were in 2000, but not significantly so. Violent crime is trending upwards and the violent crime rate may surpass the rate in 2000 if this trend persists. Misdemeanor drug arrests have been trending upwards in Columbia County since 2010. This trend may be linked to the increased prevalence of opioid abuse in the county and the Hudson Valley.

The ALICE project by United Way is an effort to quantify and describe the number of households that are struggling financially that are typically not captured by traditional poverty metrics such as the Federal Poverty Level. ALICE stands for Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed. Those living in households below the ALICE threshold are employed and living above the federal poverty line but are still struggling to afford basic essentials. The Household Survival Budget is an estimate of the cost of household essentials.

Following the national trend of declining crime, both property crimes and violent crimes have declined since 2000 in Dutchess County. However, misdemeanor drug crimes have been consistently increasing since 2000. This trend may be linked to the increased prevalence of opioid abuse in Dutchess County and the Hudson Valley.

The ALICE project by United Way is an effort to quantify and describe the number of households that are struggling financially that are typically not captured by traditional poverty metrics such as the Federal Poverty Level. ALICE stands for Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed. Those living in households below the ALICE threshold are employed and living above the federal poverty line but are still struggling to afford basic essentials. The Household Survival Budget is an estimate of the cost of household essentials.

Like much of the Hudson Valley, the Hispanic and Latino population has grown significantly in recent years in Orange County. The Hispanic and Latino Population now accounts for 20% of total county population, up from 6% in 2000. This is likely correlated to the fact that 56% of foreign-born Orange County residents are from Latin America. In 2010, 27% of Orange County residents aged 20 to 34 were married. By 2017, that number had decreased to 22%. 5 Economy

The ALICE project by United Way is an effort to quantify and describe the number of households that are struggling financially that are typically not captured by traditional poverty metrics such as the Federal Poverty Level. ALICE stands for Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed. Those living in households below the ALICE threshold are employed and living above the federal poverty line but are still struggling to afford basic essentials. The Household Survival Budget is an estimate of the cost of household essentials.

Since the 2007-08 school year, countywide public school enrollment has consistently declined. The trend of declining public school enrollment in Orange County started after the 2003-04 school year. Among private schools, there has been a dramatic increase in enrollment at Jewish schools, primarily due to the growing Hasidic Jewish population in Orange County, especially in the Village of Kiryas Joel. The Roman Catholic schools have witnessed a declining enrollment while other Christian schools are essentially flat. 17 Primary School Graduation

Like much of the nation, Orange County is grappling with a growing opioid addiction problem. Opioid-related deaths have increased since 2010 in both Orange County and New York State. Since 2010, opioid-related deaths per 100,000 persons have increased by over 200%. Public Safety 22

Following the national trend of declining crime, both property crimes and violent crimes are trending down in Orange County. However, misdemeanor drug crimes have been consistently increasing since 2000. This trend is likely linked to the increased prevalence of opioid abuse in Orange County and the Hudson Valley.

Population density is the highest in the three villages in the County: Cold Spring Nelsonville, and Brewster. The Village of Brewster doesn’t appear to have a high population density on the map because it is encompassed within a larger census tract with more suburban and rural areas included. Population density is also high in southern parts of the County at the border with Westchester County. Since 2000, Putnam County has experienced a significant growth of Hispanic and Latino residents, especially in the Village of Brewster. 5 Economy

The top two employment sectors in Putnam County are Healthcare & Social Assistance and Government / Public Administration. These two sectors alone account for 36% of total county employment. Although median income in Putnam County is significantly higher than the median income of the state, average wages in the county are generally lower than the state average. This speaks to the fact that the majority of Putnam County residents commute to a job outside of the County. 7 Income & Spending

The ALICE project by United Way is an effort to quantify and describe the number of households that are struggling financially that are typically not captured by traditional poverty metrics such as the Federal Poverty Level. ALICE stands for Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed. Those living in households below the ALICE threshold are employed and living above the federal poverty line but are still struggling to afford basic essentials. The Household Survival Budget is an estimate of the cost of household essentials.

In addition to high household incomes, Putnam County also has the highest median rent in the Hudson Valley region at $1,334 per month. There are nearly 3,000 renters that earn less than 50% of area median income (AMI). Over half of those households pay more than 50% of their household income towards housing costs, which indicates they are severely cost burdened. This illustrates that although Putnam County is overall very wealthy, there are a significant number of low income renters that are particularly challenged by the high housing costs in the County. 13 Median Home Value

Following the national trend of declining crime, both property crimes and violent crimes have been trending downward since 2000 in Putnam County. Misdemeanor drug arrests have been consistently increasing since 2000 in Putnam County. Felony drug arrests are also more common in 2017 than they were in 2000. This trend may be linked to the increased prevalence of opioid abuse in Putnam County and the Hudson Valley.

Healthcare is the dominant employment sector in both Sullivan County and New York State, but to a greater degree in Sullivan. Healthcare accounts for over 25% of total employment in Sullivan County.

The median household income in Sullivan County (adjusted for inflation) has slightly increased since 2000, but has been consistently lower than the median household income of New York State and the nation. In 2000, the county median was 12% lower than the state and was 14% lower than the state by 2017. 7 Income & Spending

ALICE stands for Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed. The ALICE project by United Way is an effort to quantify and describe the number of households that are struggling financially who are typically not captured by traditional poverty metrics such as the Federal Poverty Level. Those living in households below the ALICE threshold are employed and living above the federal poverty line but are still struggling to afford basic essentials. The Household Survival Budget is an estimate of the cost of household essentials.

The ALICE project by United Way is an effort to quantify and describe the number of households that are struggling financially that are typically not captured by traditional poverty metrics such as the Federal Poverty Level. ALICE stands for Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed. Those living in households below the ALICE threshold are employed and living above the federal poverty line but are still struggling to afford basic essentials. The Household Survival Budget is an estimate of the cost of household essentials.

However, misdemeanor drug crimes have been consistently increasing since 2000. This trend may be linked to the increased prevalence of opioid abuse in Ulster County and the Hudson Valley.
