Bordentown is named after Joseph Borden, who is credited with developing one of the first systems of transportation to take people and freight from New York City to Philadelphia in 1740. To this day, Bordentown's prime location means it has the shortest access to Perth Amboy for easy transport of goods and people to the greater NYC area. Residents of Bordentown enjoy all the charm of small-town living, and rave about the exceptionally maintained parks. Bordentown has a population of just under 4,000; however, it is growing because of the intrinsic charm and historic value (it's home to founder of the American Red Cross Clara Barton, for one) of the community. Bask in the simplicity of small-town living with a move to Bordentown. See more
