Cedar Glen Lakes, NJ population, income and ZIP codes

Cedar Glen Lakes CDP is a small town in New Jersey, with 1,509 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #506 of 700 ranked by population — larger than 27% of them. The median age here is 73.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Cedar Glen Lakes CDP earn a median of $33,958 a year, 56.8% below the national figure of $78,538 and 68% below the $106,926 median for the 543 New Jersey cities we cover. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 7.6% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Cedar Glen Lakes CDP is valued at $97,000, 68% below the national figure and 76% below the $412,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 95.8% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, an owner-dominated market where rental listings are scarce and rent medians rest on a thin sample. 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.

A median age of 73.3 puts Cedar Glen Lakes CDP well into retirement-weighted territory, which pulls median household income down even where household wealth is high, because retirement draws are counted differently from wages.

The Census withheld gross rent for Cedar Glen Lakes CDP because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.
