About New Jersey

The Hudson, the Atlantic, Delaware Bay and the Delaware River form most of New Jersey's borders. Only the straight line with New York in the north crosses dry land. From the beaches and the Pine Barrens, the land rises to the ridges and lakes of the northwest. New Jersey became the third state in 1787, and in 1789 it was the first to ratify the Bill of Rights.

Most New Jerseyans live in the cities and suburbs around New York City and Philadelphia, and no state has more people per square mile. Towns here began as Dutch and Swedish farm villages and Puritan settlements. Later came mill towns on fast rivers, iron and glass works, railroad suburbs and seaside resorts. The Lenape lived here first, and places like Passaic, Hackensack and Hoboken still carry Lenape names.

Newark, Jersey City and North Jersey

Newark, Jersey City, Paterson, Elizabeth, Hoboken and Hackensack fill the land west of the Hudson, across from New York City. The Palisades cliffs line the river, and the Meadowlands marshes spread out behind them. Dutch settlers built the village of Bergen in 1660. Now part of Jersey City, it was the first lasting European town in New Jersey. Puritans from Connecticut founded Newark in 1666. Paterson was planned in 1791 as an industrial city, with mills powered by the 77-foot Great Falls of the Passaic.

The Skylands of Northwest Jersey

The Skylands are the ridges, lakes, farms and forests of northwest New Jersey. Morristown, Parsippany, Newton, Hackettstown and Phillipsburg on the Delaware are its main towns. Washington's army spent the hard winter of 1779 to 1780 at Jockey Hollow near Morristown. In 1933, the camp became part of the country's first national historical park. The Morris Canal, opened in 1831, carried coal boats from Phillipsburg east across these hills. Lake Hopatcong, the state's largest lake, had more than 40 hotels by 1900.

Princeton, Trenton and Central Jersey

Central Jersey runs from the farms and river towns of Hunterdon County through Somerville, Edison and New Brunswick to Trenton and Princeton. On Christmas night in 1776, Washington's army crossed the Delaware and surprised the Hessian troops at Trenton the next morning. In 1783, Princeton was the nation's capital for four months, with Congress meeting in Nassau Hall. Thomas Edison invented the phonograph at his Menlo Park lab in 1877, in the township that took his name in 1954.

The Jersey Shore, Sandy Hook to Cape May

Asbury Park, Long Branch, Toms River, Atlantic City, Ocean City, Wildwood and Cape May sit along the beaches, bays and barrier islands of the coast. New Jerseyans call a trip here going "down the Shore." The Sandy Hook lighthouse, lit in 1764, is the oldest working lighthouse in the country. Atlantic City built its first boardwalk in 1870 to keep sand out of hotels and train cars. Cape May, one of the oldest seaside resorts in America, is known for its Victorian houses.

South Jersey and the Pine Barrens

South Jersey runs along the Delaware River and Bay, across from Philadelphia and Delaware. Camden, Cherry Hill, Glassboro, Vineland and Bridgeton are here, with the farms of Salem and Cumberland and the sandy forests of the Pine Barrens. In 1858, the first nearly complete dinosaur skeleton found in North America was dug up in Haddonfield. The Batsto ironworks, deep in the pines, made cannonballs for the Continental Army. In 1869, Thomas Welch of Vineland found a way to keep grape juice from turning into wine.
