Delhi is a place where college students are a big part of the character and culture of the town. Small towns have often struggled with declining populations over the past few decades, but the presence of such a large college student population has helped Delhi to fight this trend. Not only does the college population add spending and jobs to local economy, but it also contributes a very tangible, youthful energy to the town.
One of the benefits of Delhi is that there is very little traffic. The average commute to work is 15.02 minutes, which is substantially less than the national average. Not only does this mean that the drive to work is less aggravating, but noise and pollution levels are lower as a result.
Delhi is one of the most well-educated cities in the nation. 40.53% of adults in Delhi have at least a bachelor's degree. Compare that to the average community in America, which has just 21.84% with a bachelor's degree or higher.
The per capita income in Delhi in 2018 was $20,954, which is low income relative to New York and the nation. This equates to an annual income of $83,816 for a family of four. However, Delhi contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.
Delhi is a somewhat ethnically-diverse village. The people who call Delhi home describe themselves as belonging to a variety of racial and ethnic groups. The greatest number of Delhi residents report their race to be White, followed by Asian. Important ancestries of people in Delhi include German, Irish, English, Italian, and Polish.
The most common language spoken in Delhi is English. Other important languages spoken here include Spanish and Chinese.
