The market here
Elmwood Park sits in Central Bergen, with roughly 7,267 households. Homes there sold for an average of $632k across 59 closed sales over the period covered below, which places it among the more attainable parts of the county. An average is pulled by the extremes, so treat it as a bearing rather than a price. In a borough this size the street matters more than the town-wide figure.
