Living in Lebanon



Lebanon is a very small borough located in the state of New Jersey. With a population of 1,672 people and two associated neighborhoods, Lebanon is the 445th largest community in New Jersey. Lebanon has seen a significant amount of newer housing growth in recent years. Quite often, new home construction is the result of new residents moving in who are middle class or wealthier, attracted by jobs, a healthy local economy, or other amenities as they leave nearby or far away areas for greener pastures. This seems to be the case in Lebanon, where the median household income is $106,389.00.

Also of interest is that Lebanon has more people living here who work in computers and math than 95% of the places in the US.

A relatively large number of people in Lebanon telecommute to their jobs. Overall, about 26.08% of the workforce works from home. While this may seem like a small number, as a fraction of the total workforce it ranks among the highest in the country. These workers are often telecommuters who work in knowledge-based, white-collar professions. For example, Silicon Valley has large numbers of people who telecommute. Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.

One downside of living in Lebanon is that it can take a long time to commute to work. In Lebanon, the average commute to work is 34.65 minutes, which is quite a bit higher than the national average.

If knowledge is power, Lebanon is a pretty powerful place. 57.46% of the adults in Lebanon have earned a 4-year college degree, masters degree, MD, law degree, or even PhD. Compare that to the national average of 21.84% for all cities and towns.

The per capita income in Lebanon in 2022 was $63,113, which is upper middle income relative to New Jersey, and wealthy relative to the rest of the US. This equates to an annual income of $252,452 for a family of four. However, Lebanon contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.

Lebanon is a somewhat ethnically-diverse borough. The people who call Lebanon home describe themselves as belonging to a variety of racial and ethnic groups. The greatest number of Lebanon residents report their race to be White, followed by Asian. Important ancestries of people in Lebanon include Ukrainian, Irish, Italian, German, and Polish.

In addition, Lebanon has a lot of people living here who were born outside of the US (27.68%).
