Engagement
A typical post picks up 436 interactions against 621K followers, an engagement rate of 0.07%. Measured over 68 original posts, its engagement rate beats 64% of 4,231 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 25K times each, and 1.72% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 4.09% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on almost every day in the window. Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 68 posts sampled, 68% carry an image or video and 28% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 6.4K interactions, about 15x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #ai, #realestate, #realestateinvesting.

Compared with accounts its own size
Governor Kathy Hochul's engagement rate beats 64% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (4,231 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 8 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.
On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 64% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 14:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

new: Gov. Hochul's office is actively looking into any potential tax fraud revealed through the rollout of NYC's pied-à-terre tax, a spokesperson says. e.g., cases where someone claims to live here most of the time, but doesn't pay NYC taxes, or has their car registered elsewhere

For generations, the Chambers St. station reflected decades of disinvestment in our transit system. Thanks to congestion pricing, we’re finally giving it the comprehensive renovation New Yorkers deserve. https://t.co/huNC7lMVwb

Starting today, the Trump Administration can no longer use our locally-funded police to carry out their cruel immigration agenda. Local cops should be focused on fighting local crimes. Not aiding and abetting an $85 billion federal agency. https://t.co/qxvdEd09JZ

The graffiti at the construction site of the future Islamic Center of Mastic is a vile, disturbing display of hate. Grateful to the Suffolk County Police for leading this investigation. Islamophobia has no place in New York - and it never will.

- What is Governor Kathy Hochul's engagement rate on X?
- Governor Kathy Hochul (@GovKathyHochul) has an engagement rate of 0.07%, based on the median interactions across 68 original posts from the last 30 days against 620,822 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.07%, Governor Kathy Hochul sits above the 25th percentile of the 41,015 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
- Does @GovKathyHochul have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 64% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (4,231 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
- When does @GovKathyHochul post?
- Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day, at roughly 3.03 posts per day across the measured window.
