Township, established in 1844, is located in the geographic center of New
Jersey, and is equidistant between New York City and Philadelphia. Jackson
is traversed by Interstate Highway 195, which runs from west to east
connecting Trenton, the capital of New Jersey, to the Jersey Shore, and
which intersects both the New Jersey Turnpike and the Garden State
Parkway. Jackson Township has three (3) exits off I-195, making the
location of your business easily accessible to State Regional and World
Wide markets.
lthough
predominantly a bedroom community, Jackson is fast becoming a tourism
destination. Jackson is home to Six Flags Great Adventure, Wild Safari
Park and the newly constructed Hurricane Harbor, the three greatest amusement
parks in the Northeast. Also located on route 537 is the Jackson Premium Outlets, a factory outlet, with 71 stores in total, including marquee
stores such as Brooks Brothers, Bass, Tommy Hilfiger, Nike, Donna Karan,
Harry and David, and Nautica, just to name a few. Other tourism
attractions and businesses include historic Rova Farms resort, Top Gun Paint Ball and some of the best R.V. parks in New Jersey,
such as Butterfly Campground, Tip Tam Campground, Indian Rock Campground,
Maple Lake Campground, and Timberland Lake Campground.
onsidering
its size (100 square miles, with a population exceeding 45,000), Jackson
is still a close-knit community. Jackson continues to grow, and several
new schools are proposed.
We currently have a senior high school, two middle schools, and five elementary schools. The Ocean County Library system
had constructed a new
"state of the art" facility, next to Jackson's Justice Complex.
ey
to Jackson's past and its future potential is its many waterways and its
abundant underground water supply. Jackson is partially located in the
Pinelands National Reserve. Many homes in Jackson are on wells, but the
Jackson Municipal Utility Authority services several sections of Jackson. They have recently extended
sewer service across town to Great Adventure and have just broken ground
on a new water facility, specifically intended to service the town's
nearly 2,000 acres of industrial and commercially zoned properties. The
centerpiece of our commercial expansion is the Vista Center, which is a
business and office complex located at exit 21 of I-195, next to the
Metedconk National Golf Club. Once water service is complete, the
commercial zones and Vista Center will have all the resources you need to
locate your business here in Jackson.
erved
by four Fire Departments, a paid and volunteer First Aid Squad, and a
highly professional 70-member Police Department. Jackson is a safe place
to live and to operate a business. This contributes greatly to our quality
of life. In the July, 1997 issue of Money Magazine, the Monmouth/Ocean
County area, including Jackson, were recognized as the third best place to
live in the country.
bviously,
Jackson is a great place to relocate your family and your business.
