Perth Amboy is one of New Jersey's oldest cities, sitting at the confluence of the Raritan River and Arthur Kill across from Staten Island. The housing stock is heavily concentrated in pre-1950 frame and brick construction. The downtown blocks around Smith Street carry 1880s through 1930s Victorian, Italianate, and rowhouse residential and mixed-use buildings. The Brighton Avenue and waterfront blocks include 1900s through 1950s frame homes with high concentrations of multi-unit and two-family conversions. Newer 1980s and 1990s infill fills in pockets across the city. Several housing developments and condominium buildings add density along the waterfront.

Perth Amboy's waterfront location on the Raritan River and Arthur Kill puts properties within one mile of both waterways in the moderate-to-direct salt-air exposure zone. CRS installs copper flashing on waterfront blocks and any address within one mile of the river or kill. The city's high concentration of older 1880s through 1930s framing means deck inspection during tear-off is routine. Inland blocks use standard G-90 galvanized flashing acceptably. The construction office processes residential roofing permits in three to five business days. Historic district overlay applies to certain downtown blocks.
