How much affordable housing every NJ town needs

The number of affordable housing units that should be built in each municipality of New Jersey, according to calculations by the Department of Community Affairs.

The towns are listed by county and in order of greatest need.

The "present need" refers to existing but deficient housing occupied by low- and moderate-income households. "Prospective need" refers to the housing that would have to be built in the next 10 years to accommodate the estimated growth of low- and moderate-income households. The state used a formula that considers a municipality's income and land capacity.

The current housing counts are from the 2020 Census.
