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. Much of the housing stock in Lebanon was built relatively recently. The construction of new real estate can often be taken as an indication that the local Lebanon economy is robust, and that jobs or other amenities are attracting an influx of new residents. 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.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 26.08% of the workforce. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce this is high compared to the rest of the county. 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.

Foreign born people are also an important part of Lebanon's cultural character, accounting for 27.68% of the borough’s population.

The most common language spoken in Lebanon is English. Other important languages spoken here include Langs. of India and Slavic languages.
