Household Median Income by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — New Jersey

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Northern New Jersey zip codes, particularly in Bergen, Morris, and Somerset counties, consistently display household median incomes above $125,000, forming a high-income corridor that aligns with New York City commuter suburbs. In stark contrast, urban centers such as Newark, Trenton, Camden, and Atlantic City appear as dark-shaded pockets with median incomes below $40,000, creating sharp discontinuities against their surrounding suburban zip codes. Southern New Jersey generally trends toward moderate income levels in the $60,000–$80,000 range, with the exception of coastal and Pine Barrens areas that dip lower.
