Fairview CDP, NJ population, income and ZIP codes

Fairview CDP is a small town in New Jersey, with 3,950 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #341 of 700 ranked by population — larger than 51% of them. The median age here is 40.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 Fairview CDP earn a median of $170,395 a year, 117% above the national figure of $78,538 and 59% above 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 0.8% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Fairview CDP is valued at $595,000, 96.1% above the national figure and 44% above the $412,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $3,046 a month, 116.6% above the national figure, or roughly $36,552 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 21.5% 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 3.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 92.8% 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. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.

Every value on this page is published directly by the Census for this area — nothing is modelled or interpolated. 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.
