Despite stable racial demographics, notable economic changes have occurred in Parishville over the past decade. The median income has shown an upward trend, increasing from $47,209 in 2013 to $64,299 in 2022, representing a growth of about 36% over nine years. The population has fluctuated, peaking at 314 residents in 2015 and declining to 260 in 2022. Periods of higher population coincided with lower median incomes, while recent years of slightly lower population have seen higher median incomes.

The low population and high percentage of white residents is typical of many rural areas in the United States, particularly in the Northeast. The growth in median income over the decade is a positive economic indicator. The slight population decline in recent years, despite rising incomes, could reflect broader trends of rural population loss or aging populations in small communities. The persistent lack of racial diversity stands in contrast to national trends towards increasing diversity, especially in more urban and suburban areas.

Parishville represents a stable, predominantly white rural community that has experienced economic growth over the past decade, despite minor population fluctuations. The community's racial composition has remained largely unchanged, maintaining its status as a Low Diversity area with a strong White Majority. While economically resilient, the area has not followed broader national trends towards increased racial diversity, potentially due to its rural nature and small population size.
