Residents who practice [[Judaism]] make up 10.1% of the population and practitioners of other faiths represent .9%.<ref name="ARDA"/> Note that these values are county-wide; municipal values could be significantly different. {{Historical populations |title = Population growth since 1902 |direction = horizontal |align = none |pop_name = Population |1902|331 |1910|950 |1920|1027 |1930|1794 |1940|1830 |1950|2494 |1960|5105 |1970|6521 |1980|7115 |1990|7070 |2000|7696 |2010|7867 |2019|8094 |2020|7569 |source=1902 to 1940<ref name="FamilyAlbum"/>{{rp|pages=11β31}} {{β’}} 1950 to 2000<ref name="2007Plan"/> {{β’}} 2010<ref name="Census 2010"/> {{β’}} 2020<ref>{{cite web|title=QuickFacts: Briarcliff Manor village, New York|work=United States Census Bureau|url=https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/briarcliffmanorvillagenewyork/POP010210#POP010210|access-date=September 20, 2022}}</ref> }}
