What it’s like
The place. Sodus Point is a small village on the Lake Ontario shore in Wayne County, and nearly everyone who lives here owns their home. Household incomes run above the county's, and a smaller share of residents live below the poverty line than in many places. Winters are cold and very snowy, with January the coldest month, while July brings warm summer days and rain or melted snow falls through the year.
Work. Residents of the village work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with others in manufacturing, shops, and professional and business services. Across Wayne County, the largest workplaces include Newark Wayne Community Hospital, the Newark Central School District and Constellation, which generates nuclear power. Unemployment across the county is no higher than it was a year ago, and the county has gained jobs over the past year.
Things to do. Beechwood State Park lies in or beside the village, and Chimney Bluffs State Park, a protected shoreline area, is a short drive away. Also a short drive off is Zurich Bog, another protected area. For a longer outing, Women's Rights National Historical Park is a longer drive away.

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 Wayne County and the Rochester, NY metro.
