Homes in Teterboro
Teterboro is mostly airport and commercial land with very few homes: the 2020 Census counted 61 residents, and ACS 2020–2024 5-year estimates show only about 39 housing units. With so few units, the ACS figures have wide margins of error: the median year built is 1958, plus or minus 30 years, about 69% of units were built before 1980, the survey estimates no owner-occupied homes, and utility gas is the main heating fuel for nearly all occupied units.
The Construction Department, on the second floor of the DPW facility at 250 Hollister Road, issues all building permits and performs inspections; its page asks people to call 201-288-7204 to confirm hours. Properties south of Route 46 (excluding Teterboro Airport) also fall under NJSEA review. Work that could affect airspace near Teterboro Airport may require FAA Form 7460-1, and airport tenant projects are referred to the Port Authority.
Flooding
Teterboro drains to the Meadowlands through the East and West Riser Ditches. FEMA's National Flood Hazard Layer shows a Zone AE Special Flood Hazard Area covering a substantial part of the borough. The borough's Construction page links to NJDEP stormwater resources, but we did not find a dedicated flood information page. To check a specific address, search it on the FEMA Flood Map Service Center.
Permits in Teterboro
Building, plumbing and electrical permits come from the Borough of Teterboro construction office. Your contractor normally pulls the permit, but it's worth confirming.
