Citing data from the latest U.S. Census, New York Upstate determined the richest places in upstate New York, including many from the Hudson Valley.

Noting that residents who bring home the largest paychecks are often from Long Island and New York City, the report only includes locales from upstate - which is considered by the website to be areas north of Westchester and Rockland counties - in the rankings.

The new study evaluated median household income, family income, non-family income and the total households in each community in upstate New York.
