What it’s like
The place. Cornwallville is a community in Greene County, New York, where winters are cold and summers are warm. Figures for the area are the county's, and the county's median age is higher than many, with most homes lived in by their owners. Across the county, median household income and the share of residents below the poverty line are the county's own measures, and the town shares them.
Work. Greene County's unemployment has barely moved over the past year, and jobs have edged upward. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, professional and business services, shops, and restaurants, hotels and entertainment. A typical commute is short, and a minority of workers work from home.
Things to do. Tenmile Creek, a river a short drive away, suits an easy outing close to home. Kaaterskill Falls, a waterfall a longer drive away, and Olana State Historic Site, a museum also a longer drive away, make fuller day trips.

Natural hazards
- Inland floodingRelatively moderate
FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms across Greene 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 Greene County.
