North Middletown CDP, NJ in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

North Middletown CDP is a small town in New Jersey, with 3,081 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #380 of 700 ranked by population — larger than 45% of them. The median age here is 36.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 North Middletown CDP earn a median of $146,650 a year, 86.7% above the national figure of $78,538 and 37% above the $106,926 median for the 543 New Jersey cities we cover. Household income here is measured before tax and pooled across everyone at the address, which is why it reads higher than typical individual earnings in the same area. Poverty reaches 2.8% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in North Middletown CDP is valued at $311,500, 2.7% above the national figure and 24% below the $412,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $2,095 a month, 49% above the national figure, or roughly $25,140 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17.1% 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 2.1×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so purchase prices are unusually low against local pay, the pattern in places where supply is plentiful and wage growth has been flat. 80.2% 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.
