FHFA notes: The FHFA HPI is a broad measure of the movement of single-family house prices. The FHFA HPI is a weighted, repeat-sales index, meaning that it measures average price changes in repeat sales or refinancings on the same properties. FHFA describes its ZIP code indexes as developmental: they may be revised as new data arrive or methods change, and the index does not give a dollar value for any home.

ZIP code 07029 is in Hudson County, New Jersey, within the New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ area. FHFA's index for it begins in 1998; through 2022 it stands at 332, meaning prices in repeat sales of the same homes are up +231.7% since 1998. FHFA's most recent value for this area is for 2022, so every span here ends in 2022.

Over the ten years to 2022 the index rose +131.8%, about +8.8% a year: well above Hudson County (+91.6%), well above New Jersey (+54.9%) and well above the national index (+86.1%). The change over 2021–2022 was +6.1%.

By decade, the strongest was the 2010s (+60.6%) and the weakest the 2000s (+53.7%).

Every column uses FHFA's annual all-transactions index family and the same start and end years, so the figures are directly comparable. A dash means the level has no index for that span.

FHFA reports each index with a value of 100 in its base period, the first year the area has enough transactions (1998 here). A decade's change is the index at the end of the decade divided by the index at the start, so it does not depend on the base year; the United States column covers the same years. Decades before 1998 are not shown.

Where does the index for this ZIP come from?

From the Federal Housing Finance Agency's annual five-digit ZIP code house price index (all-transactions), last updated March 31, 2026.

The index tracks price changes for the same homes over time; it does not give a dollar value for any home.
