Bustling downtowns and wide-open spaces. Co-working places. Easy accessibility. Safety and stability. Beautiful landscapes. Quiet escapes. Blue-Ribbon schools. Top talent pools. It’s no wonder Somerset County is consistently ranked one of the most desirable places to live, work, and play in the nation.
Ready. Set. Go!
We attract the largest and most well-known brands and top talent from around the world. We’re also a catalyst for aspiring entrepreneurs to realize their dreams.
When choosing your next home, there’s many factors to consider. The cost of living is one thing, but the value is everything; we have so much that can’t be measured in dollars and cents.
From rolling hills and natural sites, to vibrant downtowns, top restaurants, neighborhoods, and our National Champion Minor League Baseball team. There’s a reason we’re #1 in New Jersey for outdoor activities and families.
