Guttenberg town, NJ in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Guttenberg town is a mid-size town in New Jersey, with 11,638 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #122 of 700 ranked by population — larger than 82% of them. The median age here is 37.8 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 Guttenberg town earn a median of $77,636 a year, 1.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 27% 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 13.8% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Guttenberg town is valued at $360,700, 18.9% above the national figure and 13% below the $412,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,661 a month, 18.1% above the national figure, or roughly $19,932 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 25.7% 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 4.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 36.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, a renter-majority market, so rent figures matter more here than the home-value line. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
