The Region
Cumberland County is a pleasant, suburban/rural community that consists of three cities, one borough
and 10 townships. Located in the Southwest corner of New Jersey, the county is home to 130,000
people.
The county is 40 miles from Philadelphia. New York City and Washington, D.C. are each about a
three-hour drive. An abundance of recreational opportunities exist throughout the region and in the
county, which is located on the Delaware Bay and within 35 miles of the Atlantic Coast beaches and
the casinos in Atlantic City.
Cumberland is characterized by an active arts community, a bustling shopping mall, a zoo that
features Siberian tigers, vast historic wetlands, fertile farmlands and a rich glassblowing heritage. Pro
sports enthusiasts are 40 minutes away from the Philadelphia Eagles, Flyers, 76ers and Phillies.
Money Magazine twice selected Cumberland County as one of the best places to live in New
Jersey, and the National Association of Home Builders named this area one of the most affordable
housing markets in America.
The annual "Washington Monthly" ranking of America's best community colleges placed
Cumberland County College at number 29 in the nation, and the only community college in the "Washington
Monthly" top 50 from all of New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Delaware.

The Region
Cumberland County is a pleasant, suburban/rural community that consists of three cities, one borough
and 10 townships. Located in the Southwest corner of New Jersey, the county is home to 130,000
people.
The county is 40 miles from Philadelphia. New York City and Washington, D.C. are each about a
three-hour drive. An abundance of recreational opportunities exist throughout the region and in the
county, which is located on the Delaware Bay and within 35 miles of the Atlantic Coast beaches and
the casinos in Atlantic City.
Cumberland is characterized by an active arts community, a bustling shopping mall, a zoo that
features Siberian tigers, vast historic wetlands, fertile farmlands and a rich glassblowing heritage. Pro
sports enthusiasts are 40 minutes away from the Philadelphia Eagles, Flyers, 76ers and Phillies.
Money Magazine twice selected Cumberland County as one of the best places to live in New
Jersey, and the National Association of Home Builders named this area one of the most affordable
housing markets in America.
The annual "Washington Monthly" ranking of America's best community colleges placed
Cumberland County College at number 29 in the nation, and the only community college in the "Washington
Monthly" top 50 from all of New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Delaware.
