VANGUARD NEW YORK TAX-FREE FUNDS 2026-03-27 Vanguard New York Municipal Money Market Fund Investment Objective Vanguard New York Municipal Money Market Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide current income that is exempt from both federal and New York personal income taxes while maintaining a stable net asset value of $1 per share. The Fund is intended for New York residents only. Fees and Expenses The following tables describe the fees and expenses you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the tables and example below. Shareholder Fees (Fees paid directly from your investment) 0 0 0 0 25 Annual Fund Operating Expenses (Expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment) 0.0010 0 0.0001 0.0011 Example This example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. 11 35 62 141 Principal Investment Strategies The Fund employs an active management approach, investing in a variety of high-quality, short-term New York municipal securities. As a matter of fundamental policy, under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in securities whose income is exempt from federal and New York state taxes. The Fund may count securities that generate income subject to the federal alternative minimum tax (AMT) toward the 80% investment requirement.The Fund has elected to operate as a retail money market fund under Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund seeks to maintain a stable share price, or net asset value (NAV), of $1; maintains a dollar-weighted average maturity of 60 days or less and a dollar-weighted average life of 120 days or less; meets applicable daily, weekly, and general liquidity requirements; and invests in high-quality securities with effective maturities of 397 days or less. To be eligible for investment by the Fund, a security must be determined by methods approved by the board of trustees of Vanguard New York Tax-Free Funds to present minimal credit risk. As a result, the Fund selects securities based in part on a consideration of maturity, portfolio diversification, portfolio liquidity, and credit quality. Securities held by the Fund may pay fixed, variable, or floating rates of interest.The Fund’s investments in municipal securities may include municipal bond structured products that, in the opinion of the Fund’s advisor, are consistent with the Fund’s investment objective. Such investments may include tender option bonds or long-term municipal securities with a demand feature (e.g., variable rate demand obligations or notes). As with any investment, an investment in the Fund could lose money over any time period.You could lose money by investing in the Fund. • General Market Risk. The markets in which the Fund invests can be affected by a variety of factors. These factors, which can be real or perceived, may include economic, market, political, and regulatory conditions and developments as well as local, regional, or global events such as wars, military conflicts, natural disasters, and public health issues. In addition, investor sentiment and expectations regarding these factors can also impact the markets. Different parts of the market, including different industries and sectors as well as different types of securities, may react differently to factors that affect the market. These factors can contribute to market uncertainty, market volatility, and fluctuations in the value of the Fund’s investments, thereby resulting in potential losses to the Fund over short or long periods. • Investing in Bond Markets. The Fund invests in money market instruments, which are high quality, short-term debt securities. As a result, the Fund may be impacted by the general condition of the bond markets and by factors that affect bonds and bond issuers. For example, as a general rule, bond prices and interest rates move in opposite directions. When interest rates rise, bond prices tend to fall, and when interest rates fall, bond prices tend to go up. Bond income also is affected by changes in interest rates. Interest rates can rise or fall for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to, central bank monetary policy, inflationary or deflationary pressures, and changes in general market and economic conditions. Changing interest rates, including, but not limited to, rates that fall below zero, could have unpredictable effects on the overall market and may expose the bond markets in particular to heightened volatility and potential illiquidity. The degree to which the Fund is impacted by certain bond market risks may vary based on factors disclosed in its principal investment strategies, such as the types of bonds in which it invests and the overall credit quality, average maturity, and/or average duration of its bond holdings. • Investing in the Municipal Bond Market. In addition to the general risks associated with investing in bonds, municipal bonds are subject to unique risks. The values of the Fund’s municipal bond holdings could be impacted significantly by economic, regulatory, political, or other developments or circumstances affecting municipal bond issuers. These developments or circumstances could create uncertainty in the municipal bond market and/or adversely impact the ability of municipal bond issuers to make principal and interest payments, which could result in a loss to the Fund. Municipal bonds can vary from one another in a number of ways, which can impact their sensitivity to certain risks. For example, investing in revenue bonds, which make up a significant portion of the municipal bond market, will generally subject the Fund to a higher risk of loss than investing in municipal bonds secured by the full faith, credit, and taxing power of the issuer (general obligation bonds). Because the interest and principal on revenue bonds is payable only from a particular stream of revenue, they generally carry more Credit Risk than general obligation bonds. Revenue bonds also tend to be more sensitive to economic conditions than general obligation bonds, which could make their prices more volatile. The Fund also is subject to the risk that all or a significant portion of its municipal bond holdings will be affected in the same manner. Because many municipal bonds are issued to finance similar projects, conditions in related sectors could have an outsized impact on the municipal bond market. As a result, the Fund may underperform funds that invest more broadly. • Tax-Exempt Income Risk. There is no guarantee that the interest payable on municipal bonds will remain exempt from federal, state, or local income taxes. Tax-exempt income from the Fund’s municipal bond holdings could be declared taxable, possibly with retroactive effect, due to a variety of circumstances such as tax law changes, adverse interpretations by tax authorities, or noncompliant conduct by a municipal bond issuer. Any of these circumstances could cause the prices of municipal bonds to decline significantly or impair the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective. • Stable NAV. There can be no assurance that the Fund will be successful in maintaining a stable NAV. A wide variety of factors, such as significant market volatility, very low or negative interest rates, periods of high redemption activity, or other factors could affect the Fund’s ability to maintain a stable NAV. • Money Market Funds and Interest Rates. In general, the prices of money market instruments are less sensitive to changes in interest rates than the prices of longer-term debt securities. However, money market fund income is based on short-term interest rates, which means the Fund’s income may fluctuate significantly over short periods and may decline during periods of falling interest rates. In addition, interest rate changes could have unpredictable impacts on the overall market, which could negatively impact the Fund. For example, the Fund may be subject to loss if interest rates increase substantially and/or rapidly. Depending on the duration and severity, a period of low or negative interest rates could prevent the Fund from, among other things, providing a positive yield to its shareholders, paying expenses out of current income, and/or achieving its investment objective, including maintaining a stable NAV of $1. • Credit Risk. Credit risk refers to the chance that an issuer will default (fail to meet its credit obligations) or fail to make payments in a timely manner, which could result in a loss to the Fund. In addition, negative perceptions of an issuer’s ability to make payments can cause the price of a security to decline. While all debt securities are subject to credit risk to some extent, those with higher credit quality ratings generally pose less credit risk than those with lower credit quality ratings. • Municipal Bond Liquidity Risk. Limited trading in the municipal bond market and a relative lack of publicly available information about the financial condition of municipal bond issuers may make municipal bonds more difficult to value or sell than other types of debt securities. If the Fund is unable to sell a security at an advantageous time or price, its returns may be reduced. • Municipal Bond Structured Products. Certain municipal securities offer unique features or are structured to meet certain demands in the municipal bond market, such as the demand for short-term tax-exempt securities. These investments may subject the Fund to unique risks, which will vary widely depending on overall conditions in the municipal bond market, the complexity of the structure and/or features, and other factors. In general, these investments tend to carry a higher degree of Credit Risk than traditional municipal bonds and may be difficult for the Fund to value or sell (see Municipal Bond Liquidity Risk). In unexpected circumstances, investing in structured products could result in a loss to the Fund and/or a distribution of taxable income to shareholders. • State-Specific Focus. The Fund invests primarily in securities issued by New York and its municipalities. Any adverse tax, legislative, or political developments in New York may have far-reaching impacts on the overall New York municipal bond market, which could adversely affect the Fund’s holdings and/or the securities that are available for investment by the Fund. In addition, the Fund is more susceptible to the credit risk of and unfavorable developments in New York than a fund that invests more widely. Unfavorable developments in any economic sector may have far-reaching ramifications on the overall New York municipal bond market. • Active Management. The Fund is actively managed. The advisor’s security selection and/or strategy execution could cause the Fund to underperform relevant securities markets or other funds with a similar investment objective. Although the Fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it cannot guarantee it will do so. The Fund may impose a fee upon sale of your shares. An investment in the Fund is not a bank account and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. The Fund’s sponsor is not required to reimburse the Fund for losses, and you should not expect that the sponsor will provide financial support to the Fund at any time, including during periods of market stress.

The Fund is intended for New York residents only. Fees and Expenses The following tables describe the fees and expenses you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell Investor Shares or Admiral Shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the tables and examples below.

The examples assume that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The examples also assume that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. 14 45 79 179 9 29 51 115 Portfolio Turnover The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the examples, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 38% of the average value of its portfolio. 0.38 Principal Investment Strategies The Fund employs an active management approach, investing primarily in high-quality municipal bonds issued by New York state and local governments, as well as by regional governmental and public financing authorities. As a matter of fundamental policy, under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in securities whose income is exempt from federal and New York state taxes.The Fund primarily purchases municipal bonds rated investment-grade, as determined by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization or (if unrated) determined to be of comparable quality by the Fund’s advisor. The Fund expects to maintain a dollar-weighted average maturity between 10 and 25 years, but has no limitations on the maturities of individual securities.The Fund is considered nondiversified, as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, which means that it may invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of particular issuers as compared with diversified funds. As with any investment, an investment in the Fund could lose money over any time period. • General Market Risk. The markets in which the Fund invests can be affected by a variety of factors. These factors, which can be real or perceived, may include economic, market, political, and regulatory conditions and developments as well as local, regional, or global events such as wars, military conflicts, natural disasters, and public health issues. In addition, investor sentiment and expectations regarding these factors can also impact the markets. Different parts of the market, including different industries and sectors as well as different types of securities, may react differently to factors that affect the market. These factors can contribute to market uncertainty, market volatility, and fluctuations in the value of the Fund’s investments, thereby resulting in potential losses to the Fund over short or long periods. • Investing in Bond Markets. The Fund may be impacted by the general condition of the bond markets and by factors that affect bonds and bond issuers. For example, as a general rule, bond prices and interest rates move in opposite directions. When interest rates rise, bond prices tend to fall, and when interest rates fall, bond prices tend to go up. Bond income also is affected by changes in interest rates. Interest rates can rise or fall for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to, central bank monetary policy, inflationary or deflationary pressures, and changes in general market and economic conditions. Changing interest rates, including, but not limited to, rates that fall below zero, could have unpredictable effects on the overall market and may expose the bond markets in particular to heightened volatility and potential illiquidity. The degree to which the Fund is impacted by certain bond market risks may vary based on factors disclosed in its principal investment strategies, such as the types of bonds in which it invests and the overall credit quality, average maturity, and/or average duration of its bond holdings. • Investing in the Municipal Bond Market. In addition to the general risks associated with investing in bonds, municipal bonds are subject to unique risks. The values of the Fund’s municipal bond holdings could be impacted significantly by economic, regulatory, political, or other developments or circumstances affecting municipal bond issuers. These developments or circumstances could create uncertainty in the municipal bond market and/or adversely impact the ability of municipal bond issuers to make principal and interest payments, which could result in a loss to the Fund. Municipal bonds can vary from one another in a number of ways, which can impact their sensitivity to certain risks. For example, investing in revenue bonds, which make up a significant portion of the municipal bond market, will generally subject the Fund to a higher risk of loss than investing in municipal bonds secured by the full faith, credit, and taxing power of the issuer (general obligation bonds). Because the interest and principal on revenue bonds is payable only from a particular stream of revenue, they generally carry more Credit Risk than general obligation bonds. Revenue bonds also tend to be more sensitive to economic conditions than general obligation bonds, which could make their prices more volatile. The Fund also is subject to the risk that all or a significant portion of its municipal bond holdings will be affected in the same manner. Because many municipal bonds are issued to finance similar projects, conditions in related sectors could have an outsized impact on the municipal bond market. As a result, the Fund may underperform funds that invest more broadly. • Tax-Exempt Income Risk. There is no guarantee that the interest payable on municipal bonds will remain exempt from federal, state, or local income taxes. Tax-exempt income from the Fund’s municipal bond holdings could be declared taxable, possibly with retroactive effect, due to a variety of circumstances such as tax law changes, adverse interpretations by tax authorities, or noncompliant conduct by a municipal bond issuer. Any of these circumstances could cause the prices of municipal bonds to decline significantly or impair the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective. • Interest Rate Risk. During periods of rising interest rates, bond prices overall may decline, which could result in a decline in the Fund’s value. The prices of longer-term bonds are more sensitive to changes in interest rates than the prices of shorter-term bonds. • Income Risk. During periods of falling interest rates, the Fund’s income may decline. The income paid by shorter-term bonds is subject to a higher degree of fluctuation than the income paid by longer-term bonds. • Credit Risk. Credit risk refers to the chance that an issuer will default (fail to meet its credit obligations) or fail to make payments in a timely manner, which could result in a loss to the Fund. In addition, negative perceptions of an issuer’s ability to make payments can cause the price of a security to decline. While all debt securities are subject to credit risk to some extent, those with higher credit quality ratings generally pose less credit risk than those with lower credit quality ratings. • Municipal Bond Liquidity Risk. Limited trading in the municipal bond market and a relative lack of publicly available information about the financial condition of municipal bond issuers may make municipal bonds more difficult to value or sell than other types of debt securities. If the Fund is unable to sell a security at an advantageous time or price, its returns may be reduced. • Call Risk. Certain bonds held by the Fund may be callable. The issuer of a callable bond has the right to “call” (redeem) the bond before its maturity date. Calls on bonds held by the Fund would result in the Fund losing any price appreciation above the bond’s call price. In addition, because bond calls occur more frequently during periods of falling interest rates, the Fund likely would be forced to reinvest the proceeds of any called bonds at a lower interest rate than that of the called bonds, resulting in a decline in the Fund’s income and a potential loss in the value of the Fund’s investments. If the proceeds from a called bond generate taxable income, the Fund may need to distribute income subject to federal or New York personal income tax or to the federal alternative minimum tax. Frequent bond calls and subsequent reinvestments of the proceeds also would increase the Fund’s turnover rate. • Extension Risk. During periods of rising interest rates, certain bonds held by the Fund may be paid off substantially more slowly than originally anticipated. As a result, the value of the bonds may fall, resulting in a decline in the Fund’s income and a potential loss in the value of the Fund’s investments. • State-Specific Focus. The Fund invests primarily in securities issued by New York and its municipalities. Any adverse tax, legislative, or political developments in New York may have far-reaching impacts on the overall New York municipal bond market, which could adversely affect the Fund’s holdings and/or the securities that are available for investment by the Fund. In addition, the Fund is more susceptible to the credit risk of and unfavorable developments in New York than a fund that invests more widely. Unfavorable developments in any economic sector may have far-reaching ramifications on the overall New York municipal bond market. • Active Management. The Fund is actively managed. The advisor’s security selection and/or strategy execution could cause the Fund to underperform relevant securities markets or other funds with a similar investment objective. • Nondiversified Funds. The Fund is considered a nondiversified fund as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Nondiversified funds invest a greater percentage of their assets in a small number of issuers than diversified funds, their performance may be negatively impacted by relatively few securities or even a single security, and their shares may experience significant fluctuations in value. An investment in the Fund is not a deposit of a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.

Fund Summary Investment Objective Vanguard New York Tax-Exempt Bond ETF (the “Fund”) seeks to track the performance of a benchmark index that measures the investment-grade segment of the New York municipal bond market. The Fund is intended for New York residents only. Fees and Expenses The following tables describe the fees and expenses you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the tables and example below.

The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. 9 29 51 115 This example does not include the brokerage commissions that you may pay to buy and sell shares of the Fund. Portfolio Turnover The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the fiscal period from May 20, 2025, to November 30, 2025, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 6% of the average value of its portfolio. 0.06 Principal Investment Strategies The Fund employs an indexing approach designed to track the performance of the S&P New York AMT-Free Municipal USD10 Million Par Bond Index (the “Target Index”), which measures the performance of the investment-grade segment of the New York municipal bond market as determined by the index provider. The Target Index includes municipal bonds issued in the state of New York, primarily those issued by New York state or local governments or agencies whose interest payments are exempt from U.S. federal income taxes (including the federal alternative minimum tax (AMT)) and New York state income taxes. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in the bonds that make up the Target Index. The Fund also has a fundamental policy to, under normal circumstances, invest at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in securities whose income is exempt from federal income taxes, including the federal AMT, and New York state income taxes.The Fund invests by sampling the Target Index, meaning that it holds a range of securities that, in the aggregate, approximates the full Target Index in terms of key risk factors and other characteristics. The Fund seeks to maintain a dollar-weighted average maturity consistent with that of the Target Index. As of November 30, 2025, the dollar-weighted average maturity of the Target Index was 13.9 years.The Fund is considered nondiversified, as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, which means that it may invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of particular issuers as compared with diversified funds. As with any investment, an investment in the Fund could lose money over any time period. • General Market Risk. The markets in which the Fund invests can be affected by a variety of factors.

In addition, the Fund is more susceptible to the credit risk of and unfavorable developments in New York than a fund that invests more widely. Unfavorable developments in any economic sector may have far-reaching ramifications on the overall New York municipal bond market. • Index Investing. The Fund is subject to risks associated with index investing. Because the Fund generally seeks to track the performance of the Target Index regardless of how the Target Index is performing, the Fund’s performance may be lower than it would be if it were actively managed. Additionally, because the Fund does not hold all of the securities included in the Target Index, it is subject to the risk that the representative sample of securities selected by the advisor will, in the aggregate, vary from the investment profile of the full Target Index. The performance of the Fund’s investments, in the aggregate, may not match the investment performance of the Target Index. This risk, known as tracking error risk, may be heightened during times of increased market volatility or under other unusual market conditions. The Fund also could be negatively impacted by changes to the Target Index made by the index provider or by errors made by the index provider. Any gains, losses, or costs associated with or resulting from an error made by the index provider will generally be borne by the Fund and, as a result, the Fund’s shareholders. • Nondiversified Funds. The Fund is considered a nondiversified fund as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Nondiversified funds invest a greater percentage of their assets in a small number of issuers than diversified funds, their performance may be negatively impacted by relatively few securities or even a single security, and their shares may experience significant fluctuations in value. • ETF Share Trading. The Fund’s ETF shares are listed for trading on Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. and individual investors may only buy and sell them on the secondary market at market prices. Although it is expected that the market price of an ETF share typically will approximate its net asset value (NAV), there may be times when the market price of an ETF share and its NAV differ significantly. Disruptions to creation and redemption transactions, the existence of significant market volatility, or potential lack of an active trading market for ETF shares (including through a trading halt), as well as other factors, may result in ETF shares trading significantly above (at a premium) or below (at a discount) the Fund’s NAV or the intraday value of the Fund’s holdings. Thus, you may pay more or less than NAV when you buy ETF shares on the secondary market, and you may receive more or less than NAV when you sell those shares. • Authorized Participants. Only Authorized Participants may engage in creation or redemption transactions directly with the Fund. The Fund has a limited number of financial institutions that may act as Authorized Participants. The Fund’s Authorized Participants are not obligated to engage in creation or redemption transactions. To the extent that the Fund’s Authorized Participants are unable to or choose not to proceed with creation and/or redemption transactions with respect to the Fund and no other Authorized Participants step forward to engage in creation or redemption transactions with the Fund, the Fund’s ETF shares may trade at a discount to NAV and possibly face trading halts and/or delisting. An investment in the Fund is not a deposit of a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.
