Accord is a tiny town located in the state of New York. With a population of 573 people and two associated neighborhoods, Accord is the 857th largest community in New York.

Also of interest is that Accord has more people living here who work in computers and math than 95% of the places in the US.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 25.00% 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.

In addition, Accord is home to many people who could be described as "urban sophisticates", which are people who are not only wealthy and employed in professional occupations, but highly educated to boot. Urban sophisticates have urbane tastes - whether they reside in a big or small city, a suburb, or a little town. Urban sophisticates support bookstores, quality clothing stores, enjoy luxury travel, and in big cities, they are truly the patrons of the arts, attending and supporting institutions such as opera, symphony, ballet, and theatre.

Because of many things, Accord is a great place for families with children to consider. First of all, many other families with children live here, making Accord a place where both parents and children are more likely to develop social ties with other families, as well as find family-oriented services and community. The town’s good public school district and large population of college-educated adults provide an environment conducive to academic values. With regard to real estate, Accord has a high rate of owner-occupied single family homes, which tends to reflect stability in the local community. Finally, Accord’s overall crime rate ranks among the lowest in the country, making it one of the safest places to raise a family.

The town is relatively quiet, having a combination of lower population density and few of those groups of people who have a tendency to be noisy. For example, Accord has relatively fewer families with younger children, and/or college students. Combined, this makes Accord a pretty quiet place to live overall. If you like quiet, you will probably enjoy it here.

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