Housing Median Monthly Rent ($), by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — New Jersey

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

Median monthly rents in New Jersey exhibit a strong north-south gradient, with the highest rents—exceeding $2,250—concentrated in the northeastern zip codes closest to New York City, particularly in Bergen, Hudson, and parts of Essex and Morris counties. Southern New Jersey, especially the rural interior portions of Cumberland, Salem, and Atlantic counties, displays markedly lower rents often below $1,000, with scattered pockets dipping near $500. The central corridor along the NJ Turnpike/I-95 spine shows moderate rents in the $1,250–$1,750 range, with notable yellow-hued high-rent outliers appearing near affluent shore communities and select suburban enclaves in Monmouth and Middlesex counties.
