The local figures answer the first question: In Passaic, NJ, the 2024 ACS reports a median owner-occupied home value of $429,900, median household income of $55,371, and median selected monthly owner costs of $2,905 for owners with a mortgage. For borrower planning, together, those three reference points can nevertheless help a borrower identify which search-price, income, and recurring-cost assumptions need current verification first. They remain separate medians, not the finances of one representative household, and the $2,905 measure combines recurring ownership expenses instead of real estate taxes alone. A useful affordability review starts with $429,900, $55,371, and $2,905, then replaces them with the borrower's documented income, cash, debts, property taxes, insurance, association charges, loan terms, and intended occupancy.

Passaic, NJ's $429,900 median home-value estimate is below the statewide $454,400 estimate, with a reported city-to-state gap of 5.4%.
