Highland Park homeowners: get your ductwork cleaned without surprises on the bill.
Highland Park, a renters' town by the Raritan
Highland Park sits on the Raritan River, and about 60% of its homes are rented. Two- to four-family houses and apartment buildings make up most of the housing, so landlords can book one unit or several.
Air duct cleaning for Highland Park homes
In Highland Park, the Census median build year is 1962; roughly 73 of every 100 homes are from before 1980. Most of these homes have replaced the original furnace at least once, but the ducts behind it are usually original.
Heating fuel varies: utility gas heats about 70% of occupied homes and electricity about 23%. Any forced-air system, whatever the fuel, moves air through supply and return ducts that collect dust over time.
Highland Park has around 6,759 homes by Census count.
The town takes its name from a suburban housing development of the 1870s on the Raritan River.
The 2020 Census counted 15,072 people in Highland Park.
