The area is moving towards "Moderate Diversity," with three racial groups (White, Hispanic, and Asian) having significant representation (over 10% each) as of 2022.

The demographic shifts correlate with an increase in median household income. From 2013 to 2022, the median income rose from $87,712 to $100,165, an increase of about 14%. This economic growth might have attracted more diverse populations to the area, particularly skilled professionals from various racial backgrounds.

The population has grown moderately, from 28,199 in 2013 to 30,131 in 2022, suggesting that the area is becoming increasingly attractive to new residents, possibly due to its improving economic conditions and growing diversity.

The trends observed in Hackettstown align with broader national patterns of increasing diversity in suburban areas. Many suburbs across the United States have been experiencing similar demographic shifts, with growing Asian, Hispanic, and Black populations.

The economic growth in Hackettstown outpaces the national average, suggesting that this area may be particularly attractive for upwardly mobile families from diverse backgrounds. The median household income of $100,165 in 2022 is higher than the national median of about $70,784 for the same year.

The gradual increase in diversity, coupled with economic growth, suggests that Hackettstown is evolving into a more inclusive and prosperous community. This transition likely brings both opportunities and challenges, such as the need for culturally sensitive services and potential changes in local politics and community dynamics.

Hackettstown remains a "White Majority" community, but it is on a path towards greater diversity and economic prosperity. The area exemplifies the changing face of American suburbs, balancing tradition with an increasingly multicultural future.
