Housing Market
Cumberland County is appreciating at 7.5% from an extremely low base — the $230K median means entire homes cost less than a parking space in Hoboken. Homes sell in 28 days at 101.8% of asking, showing real demand despite the rural location. Vineland drives the market with the most inventory and strongest demand. Bridgeton's historic district has renovation potential that investors are beginning to discover. The agricultural economy provides stable employment through Seabrook Farms legacy operations and blueberry/tomato production.
