ZIP 07405 in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

ZIP 07405 is a mid-size town in Morris County, New Jersey, with 17,859 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #195 of 598 ranked by population — larger than 67% of them. The median age here is 41.9 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older 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 ZIP 07405 earn a median of $127,500 a year, 62.3% above the national figure of $78,538. 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 5.4% of residents here, less than half the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 07405 is valued at $552,500, 82.1% above the national figure, while median gross rent runs $1,526 a month, 8.5% above the national figure, or roughly $18,312 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 14.4% 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 4.3×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 79.8% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.

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.

Reading ZIP 07405 in context

How 07405 sits inside Morris County and New Jersey.

ZIP 07405 is tabulated inside Morris County, New Jersey, one of 50 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 598 across New Jersey. This is a mid-sized suburban ZIP inside a county that is split across many delivery areas. County assignment on this page follows the largest share of the ZIP's land area, which matters where a delivery route crosses a county line: mail addressed to 07405 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 07405 reports a median household income of $127,500, 12% below the $144,792 county median, and 17% above the $109,182 typical NJ ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $552,500, close to the county figure and 30% above the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at $1,526 a month, which is why it reads higher than the advertised rent on a listing for the same unit.

New Jersey charges 6.625% statewide, and no local sales tax is layered on top, so the state rate is the full amount collected in 07405.

Everything above comes from the Census Bureau American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates for this ZIP Code Tabulation Area, with sales tax rates traced to the state revenue agency. Five-year estimates pool sixty months of responses, so they are stable enough to compare 07405 with its neighbours but always trail the current year, and any value the Census suppressed for sample size is shown as unpublished rather than filled in with a model.
