Greene County had 47,238 residents in 2025 and 5 incorporated municipalities. Census estimates for a village this size carry a wide margin of error, so the county is the better guide: households have a median income of $77,945, and half the residents are older than 47.4. Broadband reaches 85.8% of homes, and 11.2% of households are online only through a phone plan. Homeowners are 77.2% of households.

How big is the Hunter market?

What kind of businesses Hunter has

The Census counted 37 establishments with employees in 2023 in ZIP code 12442, which includes Hunter and its surroundings. Here is part of that mix, with what each website should show:

• Hotels and motels (3): rooms, photos, location and a contact form, so travelers can compare you outside the booking apps.

Across Greene County, County Business Patterns counted 1,203 employer establishments in 2023, and the Nonemployer Statistics add 4,331 businesses with no payroll, most of them self-employed owners. 55 hotels, inns and other lodging operate in Greene County, about five times what the national mix would predict. In that line of work, travelers compare rooms, rates and location; a good site gives customers rooms with real photos, amenities, location and how to reserve by email or through your booking channel. For any of them, a clear website is the difference between being compared and being skipped.

Before you publish: New York and federal rules

These are some of the New York and federal rules a small business with a website runs into:

• The New York State sales tax rate is 4%; cities, counties and school districts add local rates (roughly 3% to 4.75%), plus an extra 0.375% inside the Metropolitan Commuter Transportation District. New York State Department of Taxation and Finance
• A federal rule (16 CFR Part 465) makes it unlawful to write, buy or sell fake reviews and testimonials, so the reviews on a business website have to be real. 16 CFR Part 465

Each business is different; this is general information, not legal advice.
