Somerset, New Jersey
Somerset County is at the hub of Central New Jersey. Its 21 municipalities which encompass 305 square miles contain a diversity of landscape, population and development that reflects the varied lifestyles of its estimated 324,194 residents.
As one of America’s oldest counties, Somerset is steeped in colonial and Revolutionary War history and is named after the English County of Somerset.
The County was established by charter on May 22, 1688, with land conveyances dating to 1651. Most of the early residents were Dutch. General George Washington and his troops marched through the county on several occasions and slept in many of the homes located throughout the area. Historic sites, monuments and buildings are found in virtually every town, preserved for future generations.
Located in the heart of the nation’s largest metropolitan area, Somerset County contains a balance between urban and suburban neighborhoods and rural country sides. Once primarily an agricultural county, in the late 19th Century the Somerset Hills area of Somerset County became a popular country home for wealthy industrialists. Now, fine residential communities, beautiful parks, excellent shopping areas, extensive farmlands, numerous historic sites and outstanding business and industry all make Somerset a desirable place to live, work and play.
