What it’s like
The place. Clemons is a small town in Washington County, in the northeast of New York State. Most homes across the county are lived in by their owners, and the county's residents are on the older side, with many in middle age. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month and snow common, while July is the warmest, and rain and melted snow fall through the year.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, or in manufacturing, retail and professional and business services. Unemployment across the county has stayed at the same level as a year earlier, and the number of jobs has barely changed. Working from home is uncommon, and a minority of adults hold a four-year degree.
Things to do. Lake George is a lake a short drive away, and the Mettawee River, also a short drive, is a river suited to a quiet outing. For a historic site, Fort Ticonderoga, a fort a longer drive away, is one of the best known in the region.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms across Washington County, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively low. 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 Washington County and the Glens Falls, NY metro.
