Barrington, NJ 206 Accessible Apartments for Rent

Barrington, like most of the rest of the state of New Jersey, has an interesting history that can be traced back over 300 years. There is much to learn about this town of just 6,983 residents (2010 U.S. Census data) -- from its early beginnings as a farming community back in 1703, to its implementation of the railroad in 1890, and its subsequent displacement just 30 years later. With the emergence of buses and cars in the 1920s, new community systems and programs were established, and the very first Barrington firehouse was constructed. The actual town of Barrington was given its name in 1880, when it was bought by a syndicate for the purpose of development. Although Barrington is now a suburb, rather than a rural community, this little town continues to reinvent itself with the ever-changing times. View Barrington City Guide
