Delmar is a hamlet in the Town of Bethlehem, in Albany County, New York, United States. It is a suburb of the neighboring city of Albany. The community is bisected by NY Route 443 (Delaware Avenue), a major thoroughfare, main street, and route to Albany.
A census-designated place (CDP) has been established since 1980 by the U.S. Census Bureau for tabulating the population of what the census has defined as the boundaries of the urbanized area in and around Delmar. The population was 8,292 at the 2000 census, but it was not included as a CDP in the 2010 census.
In 2005, CNN/Money Magazine named the Delmar ZIP Code (an area larger than the Delmar hamlet or CDP) as one of the “Best Places to Live” in America, rating it the 22nd best place to live among what it called “Great American Towns.

Speaking of relaxation, summer’s unofficial ending is five weeks with Labor Day Weekend and August becoming September in four weeks. I hope to get up to either Piseco-Powley Road and the Potholers, Burnt-Rossman and the Mine Kill State Park, or Pumpkin Hollow Road and the Wells Beach before the month is over – probably twice this month for weekend trips. For Labor Day Weekend, assuming I can get out of town, I’m looking at Green Mountain National Forest as with Memorial Day although I could change my mind and go to Moose River Plains. I like MRP, but I’ve spent a lot of time there in recent years and it’s quite a haul.
Summer is rapidly coming to a conclusion. But I’ll make the most of the remaining days. Stay dry!

Today is going to be a great one. Enjoy it. Next update from the Finger Lakes.
Because I’m a glutton for punishment and probably suffer from accute mental illness, I’ve decided to take the old Warren Anderson Expressway to the 206 to the 74 to get to the Finger Lakes, I will be experiencing on my drive:
Bump. Bump. Bump. Bump. On the Warren Anderson Expressway
Do the left lane, do the right. A giant game of twister, because at least 50% of the road is under construction. Keep changing lanes because at least one is closed for construction. On the Warren Anderson Expressway.
Up one mountain, down the next one. Leave the transmission retarded the whole way because you’re either climbing or steeply descending. On the 206.
Bumper to bumper Volvo’s with Bernie Sanders bumper stickers. Every car turning left. On the 74.
Groaning and squeaking brakes as you sit behind a line of Volvo’s. On the Monstrous Hills in Ithaca.
