Rambersville, a neighborhood in Queens, New York, demonstrates significant demographic changes from 2013 to 2022. The area transitioned from a "White Majority" community to a "White Plurality" status. In 2013, 81% of the population identified as white, decreasing to 53% by 2022. The Hispanic population increased from 13% to 41% during this period.
The neighborhood progressed from "Low Diversity" in 2013 to "Moderate Diversity" by 2022. This change is evidenced by the significant representation of both White and Hispanic populations, with a growing presence of Asian and Black residents. The diversity shift occurred alongside economic growth, with median income rising from $108,337 in 2013 to $120,199 in 2022, representing a 10.9% increase.
Population growth was moderate, increasing from 746 in 2013 to 758 in 2022. The stability in population, combined with increasing diversity and rising median income, suggests that Rambersville maintained its appeal while becoming more inclusive. The neighborhood's population density of approximately 13,510 people per square mile is lower than the average for New York City.
The demographic shifts in Rambersville align with broader trends seen in many urban areas across the United States. The increase in Hispanic population reflects national trends of rapid growth in Hispanic communities in many cities. Rambersville's ability to maintain a high median income while diversifying distinguishes it from some other transitioning neighborhoods that may experience economic challenges during demographic shifts.
Rambersville exemplifies a successful "Transitional Community," where increasing diversity has coincided with economic growth. This balance suggests a neighborhood that has embraced change while maintaining its desirability and economic strength, potentially serving as a model for other communities navigating similar demographic shifts.
