Cherry Hill Mall, NJ 180 Apartments for Rent

Do you live in a mall? Cherry Hill Mall is actually a census-designated place (CDP), not an actual city.

Cherry Hill Mall, NJ boasted a population of 14,171 residents in the 2010 US Census Bureau. Located in populous Camden County -- a well-established member of the huge Philadelphia, PA/Camden, NJ/ Wilmington, DE tri-city megalopolis -- the Cherry Hill Mall district is blessed with a high concentration of retail shopping and dining amenities (who'd have thought?). Besides the landmark mall itself, standalone shopping plazas, typical big-box brand stores and hotel lodging can be found at the major road artery confluence of Route 70, Haddonfield Road and Route 38.

If you're coming in by surface travel, your best direct bet is by car. The high-speed New Jersey Turnpike offers access to Cherry Hill by way of Exit 4. Amtrak train service and the Greyhound bus line facility in neighboring Mount Laurel provide additional arrival options.

The Town's Namesake

Cherry Hill (the actual overseeing township version) is labeled by those in the know as a "bedroom community." It comes by this nickname from being situated a mere half-hour commute from nearby Philadelphia and Camden.

Constructed in 1961, the Cherry Hill Mall was the first East Coast regional indoor mall built in the U.S. The town of Cherry Hill sports some very impressive U.S. corporate-branded headquarters, such as Pinnacle Foods (Swanson, Log Cabin, Birds Eye, Duncan Hines, Mrs. Paul's), Subaru of America and Melitta Coffee, USA.
