What it's like to live in Sicklerville

Sicklerville is an unincorporated community in New Jersey with home prices that remain within reach, household incomes running above the national average, and schools with smaller class sizes than the national average. Those factors carry real weight for anyone weighing where to move next.

Bottom line

Sicklerville's strongest points are home prices that remain within reach and household incomes running above the national average; the main tradeoffs are county unemployment above the national average and commute times longer than most cities. A year of median rent ($1,566/mo) equals 18% of the median household income here, less than the 21% typical nationwide. It may be a harder fit for anyone moving without a job lined up and people who dread long commutes.
