Ampere North, NJ population, income and ZIP codes

Ampere North CDP is a small town in New Jersey, with 4,968 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #295 of 700 ranked by population — larger than 57% of them. The median age here is 34.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger profile than the country as a whole. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.

Households in Ampere North CDP earn a median of $71,192 a year, 9.4% below the national figure of $78,538 and 33% below the $106,926 median for the 543 New Jersey cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 19.6% of residents here, well above the 12.4% national rate, which is the single clearest signal in this dataset that median income here is carried by a narrow band of households.

The typical owner-occupied home in Ampere North CDP is valued at $358,000, 18% above the national figure and 13% below the $412,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,720 a month, 22.3% above the national figure, or roughly $20,640 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 29% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 55% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.

No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
