Beattystown CDP, NJ in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Beattystown CDP is a small town in New Jersey, with 4,479 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #320 of 700 ranked by population — larger than 54% of them. The median age here is 37.9 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 Beattystown CDP earn a median of $105,179 a year, 33.9% above the national figure of $78,538 and within a couple of points of the $106,926 median for the 543 New Jersey cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 8% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Beattystown CDP is valued at $367,800, 21.2% above the national figure and 11% below the $412,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,385 a month, 1.5% below the national figure, or roughly $16,620 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 15.8% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 46.9% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. 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.
