Berkeley Heights, New Jersey

It is believed the name Berkeley refers to Lord John Berkley, one of two proprietors who jointly held all of New Jersey by grant. The township owes its rural character to its late development. Until 1941, when the American Telephone & Telegraph Company built its Bell Laboratories research facility in the township, it was a sleepy farming and resort community. Residents today are provided with a relatively low tax burden, manicured playgrounds and many town facilities for both adults and children. Camping and horseback riding are readily available at the Watchung Reservation located just off the southern boundary of Berkeley Heights. Residents have access to a highly ranked public school system, where the students consistently score in the top 1% nationally in the High School Proficiency Test and the Iowa Test of Basic Skills.

Berkeley Heights is an affluent residential community with an easy commute to Manhattan via excellent train & bus transportation. Newark Liberty International Airport is a 20-minute drive away. Direct access to Routes 24, I-78, I-287, I-280 connects Berkeley Heights to the major metropolitan networks.
