Englewood city, NJ in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Englewood city is a small city in New Jersey, with 29,342 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #33 of 700 ranked by population — larger than 95% of them. The median age here is 43 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.
Households in Englewood city earn a median of $101,398 a year, 29.1% above the national figure of $78,538 and 5% below the $106,926 median for the 543 New Jersey cities we cover. Median household income counts every pre-tax dollar arriving at an address — wages, self-employment, Social Security, pensions, interest and public assistance — for everyone living there, so multi-earner households pull the figure up even where individual pay is modest. Poverty reaches 9.8% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Englewood city is valued at $497,500, 64% above the national figure and 21% above the $412,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,925 a month, 36.9% above the national figure, or roughly $23,100 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 22.8% 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 4.9×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 52.7% 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.
