Married Couple (% of all Households) by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — New Jersey

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Zip codes in northwestern New Jersey—particularly in Morris, Somerset, and Hunterdon counties—consistently exhibit married-couple household rates above 70%, forming a prominent high-value cluster in the suburban corridor. In contrast, urban centers such as Newark, Jersey City, Trenton, Camden, and Atlantic City display rates below 30%, reflecting the well-documented urban-suburban divide in household composition. The southern Shore and Pine Barrens regions show moderate values generally ranging from 40–60%, with scattered yellow outliers suggesting pockets of affluent or retirement-oriented communities amid otherwise mixed-rate areas.
