Medina is a somewhat small village located in the state of New York. With a population of 5,953 people and four associated neighborhoods, Medina is the 274th largest community in New York. Medina has a large stock of pre-World War II architecture, making it one of the older and more historic villages in the country.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 8.13% of the workforce. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce this is high compared to the rest of the county. These workers are often telecommuters who work in knowledge-based, white-collar professions. For example, Silicon Valley has large numbers of people who telecommute. Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.

As is often the case in a small village, Medina doesn't have a public transportation system that people use for their commute.

The education level of Medina citizens is a little higher than the average for US cities and towns: 23.10% of adults in Medina have at least a bachelor's degree.

The per capita income in Medina in 2018 was $27,191, which is low income relative to New York, and lower middle income relative to the rest of the US. This equates to an annual income of $108,764 for a family of four. However, Medina contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.
