What it’s like
The place. Callicoon is a very small community in Sullivan County, New York, home to far fewer people than most towns. Household incomes here run below the county's, and the typical home is valued well above what those incomes might suggest. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month, and summers are warm, with July the warmest. Precipitation is steady through the year, falling as both rain and melted snow.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, followed by restaurants, hotels and entertainment, then shops and professional and business services. Across Sullivan County, some of the largest workplaces are The Center for Discovery, the Monticello Central School District and Garnet Health Medical Center. Unemployment across the county is level with a year earlier, and the county has added a few more jobs than it had the year before.
Things to do. The Upper Delaware Scenic and Recreational River is a protected area only a short drive away, and it suits anyone who likes time by the water. Pea Brook, a small river, is also a short drive from town. For a longer outing, the Neversink Reservoir and the Beaver Kill, a river, are both a longer drive away.

It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Sullivan County.
