Homes in Rockleigh

Rockleigh is very small: the 2020 Census counted 407 residents. ACS estimates for it rest on a small sample, so the margins of error are large and the figures below are only rough. The ACS 2020–2024 5-year median year built is 1965, with a margin of error of ±21 years. The survey estimates about 100 housing units (±35), of which roughly 36 were built before 1940 and roughly 30 in 1990 or later. About 91 units (±32) are single-family detached houses. An estimated 63 of 80 occupied homes are owner-occupied, with margins of ±27 and ±32. Utility gas is reported as the main heating fuel in about 69 of 80 occupied homes. Because the borough is so small, homeowners should not read much into these percentages.

Flooding

FEMA's National Flood Hazard Layer shows Special Flood Hazard Areas (Zones AE and A) in Rockleigh. They lie mainly along Sparkill Brook, with a short stretch of Norwood Brook. Properties near the brook may be in a mapped floodplain. The borough website has a Stormwater Management page listing local ordinances. We found no dedicated flood page. To check a specific address, use the FEMA Flood Map Service Center.
