ZIP 08065 in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
ZIP 08065 is a mid-size town in Burlington County, New Jersey, with 7,447 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #367 of 598 ranked by population — larger than 38% of them. The median age here is 42.7 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 08065 earn a median of $85,014 a year, 8.2% above the national figure of $78,538. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 8.9% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.
The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 08065 is valued at $216,600, 28.6% below the national figure, while median gross rent runs $1,680 a month, 19.5% above the national figure, or roughly $20,160 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 23.7% 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 2.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 69.6% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans toward owners. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.
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 08065 in context
How 08065 sits inside Burlington County and New Jersey.
ZIP 08065 is tabulated inside Burlington County, New Jersey, one of 33 ZIP areas the Census publishes for that county and 598 across New Jersey. Population sits in the small-town band, typically one main street plus the addresses that feed into it. 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 08065 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.
Against its own county, 08065 reports a median household income of $85,014, 17% below the $102,321 county median, and 22% below the $109,182 typical NJ ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $216,600, 33% below the county figure and 49% below the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at $1,680 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 08065.
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 08065 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.

Affordability in this ZIP
Derived from the Census medians above — indicative, not an offer.
A rent burden above 30% is the federal threshold for cost-burdened households, and a price-to-income multiple above 4× is generally considered a stretched housing market. The mortgage figure is principal and interest only — taxes, insurance and HOA dues are extra.
