Four sources give four different median prices. Here they are side by side.
$262K to $375KMedian price range
4Sources, four answers
Median home price, Clay, NY
The range is $262K to $375K. The gap comes from method: sold prices versus estimated values, city versus ZIP code, and very small sales counts. RealtyTrac’s figure rests on only 24 sales and is down about 5% year over year.
Rent
Two sources put typical Clay rent at about $1,321 (a local guide) and $1,450 (Foreclosure.com median, September 2026). Treat it as roughly $1,300 to $1,450 until you check live listings.
Some local pages claim 12 to 18% price growth in Clay-area ZIP codes. We could not find that in these sources: one shows a decline on thin data and another shows a 0.9% rise.
