Zip code 07059 in Martinsville, New Jersey, is classified as a "White Majority" community with "Low Diversity" as of 2022. The area has a high median income of $167,207, significantly above national averages. This affluent suburb has maintained its status as a predominantly white community over the past decade, with subtle shifts in its demographic composition.
From 2013 to 2022, Martinsville has consistently remained a "White Majority" area. The white population has gradually decreased from 74% in 2013 to 69% in 2022. This slow decline suggests a trend towards slightly increased diversity, though not enough to change its overall classification.
The most notable demographic shift has been the steady increase in the Asian population, rising from 15% in 2013 to 17% in 2022. This growth indicates a trend towards a more "Moderate Diversity" classification, though it has not yet reached that threshold.
There has been a small but noticeable increase in the Black population, from virtually 0% in 2013 to 3% in 2022, and in the "Two or More Races" category, from 1% to 3%. The Hispanic population has remained relatively stable, fluctuating between 6% and 9% over the decade.
The median income in Martinsville has shown an overall upward trend, increasing from $153,833 in 2013 to $167,207 in 2022. This represents a growth of about 8.7% over nine years. The highest median income was recorded in 2021 at $172,701, with a slight decrease in 2022.
The population has remained relatively stable, growing slightly from 15,940 in 2013 to 16,267 in 2022, a modest increase of about 2%. This stability suggests that the area has maintained its attractiveness to residents while slowly becoming more diverse.
The demographic trends in Martinsville reflect broader national patterns of increasing diversity, albeit at a slower pace. The high median income and its steady growth align with trends seen in other wealthy suburban areas, particularly those near major metropolitan centers.
The stability of the population, combined with increasing property values (as suggested by the rising median income), indicates that Martinsville remains a desirable location. This could potentially lead to further diversification in the future as more affluent minorities move into the area.
While Martinsville remains a predominantly white, affluent area with low diversity, there are signs of slow but steady demographic changes. These shifts, coupled with the area's economic stability, suggest a gradual transition towards increased diversity, though it may take many more years before reaching a "Moderate Diversity" classification.
