The white population remained above 90% throughout this period, decreasing slightly from 94% in 2013 to 93% in 2022.

The Hispanic population increased from 1% in 2013 to 3% in 2022. The percentage of individuals identifying as two or more races also grew from 1% to 3% over the same period. These minor shifts hint at a very slow diversification process.
The median household income in Glens Falls North increased from $70,537 in 2013 to $81,682 in 2022, representing a growth of about 15.8% over nine years. A significant increase occurred from 2020 to 2021, rising from $83,279 to $88,594, before slightly decreasing in 2022.

The demographic composition of Glens Falls North contrasts with national trends towards increasing diversity. While the U.S. is moving towards becoming a "Majority-Minority" nation, this zip code remains overwhelmingly white.
The income growth in this area aligns with broader economic trends of rising incomes in the U.S. over the past decade. The stability of the racial composition, coupled with rising incomes, suggests that the area has not experienced significant immigration or demographic shifts that often accompany rapid economic changes in many urban and suburban areas.
The slight increase in Hispanic and multiracial populations mirrors national trends of growing diversity, albeit at a much slower pace. This may indicate that the area is beginning to experience some of the demographic shifts seen more dramatically in other parts of the country, but at a notably reduced rate.
Glens Falls North has seen some economic growth and very minor increases in diversity over the past decade. It remains a predominantly white, economically stable community that has not yet experienced the level of demographic change seen in many other parts of the United States.
