ZIP code 08090

ZIP 08090 is a mid-size town in Gloucester County, New Jersey, with 9,574 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #311 of 598 ranked by population — larger than 48% of them. The median age here is 35.3 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly younger 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 08090 earn a median of $114,742 a year, 46.1% 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 9.5% of residents here, below the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in ZIP 08090 is valued at $265,300, 12.6% below the national figure, while median gross rent runs not published a month. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 2.3×, 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. 90% 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.

The Census withheld gross rent for ZIP 08090 because the sample was too thin to publish at this geography. Those values were suppressed at the source, not lost in our dataset, and we do not model a replacement. Everything else on this page comes straight from the ACS 2019-2023 ACS 5-year tables.

ZIP 08090 is tabulated inside Gloucester County, New Jersey, one of 26 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 08090 can be handled by a post office in a neighbouring county even though the tabulation area is filed here.

Against its own county, 08090 reports a median household income of $114,742, 18% above the $97,452 county median, and 5% above the $109,182 typical NJ ZIP. Owner-occupied homes are valued at a median of $265,300, 3% above the county figure and 37% below the statewide ZIP median. Rent is reported gross — the contract amount plus tenant-paid utilities — at not published 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 08090.

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 08090 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.
