Yardville CDP, NJ in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Yardville CDP is a mid-size town in New Jersey, with 6,266 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #247 of 700 ranked by population — larger than 64% of them. The median age here is 46.5 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 Yardville CDP earn a median of $100,776 a year, 28.3% above the national figure of $78,538 and 6% 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 13.1% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in Yardville CDP is valued at $326,400, 7.6% above the national figure and 21% below the $412,500 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,614 a month, 14.8% above the national figure, or roughly $19,368 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 19.2% 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 3.2×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 76.4% 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.
Median income runs above the national figure while poverty also runs above it — a split distribution, not a uniformly comfortable place. Averages hide that; the two numbers together do not.
No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. 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.
