Neshanic Station CDP, NJ in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Neshanic Station CDP is a mid-size town in New Jersey, with 5,403 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #277 of 700 ranked by population — larger than 60% of them. The median age here is 46.7 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. 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 Neshanic Station CDP earn a median of $213,682 a year, 172.1% above the national figure of $78,538 and 100% above 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 0.2% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Neshanic Station CDP is valued at $636,200, 109.7% above the national figure and 54% above the $412,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,124 a month, 51.1% above the national figure, or roughly $25,488 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 11.9% 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×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 74.8% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. 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.
