Hammonton is most famous for being the 'Blueberry Capital of the World', something which the city is particularly proud of. Each year, a festival is held there to celebrate this, known as the Red, White and Blueberry Festival. Another festival -- Mount Carmel's Italian Festival -- has been going since 1875 and is thought to be the longest running festival in the whole country.
Hammonton is fairly wide and spacious, with only about 15,000 people happily contained within its 40-plus square miles of surface area. Situated on the Atlantic Coastal Plain, the place is fairly flat, and it's found right in the middle between Atlantic City and Philadelphia, two of the East Coast's most famous urban dwellings. The town has a decent renter's market, although nearly 70% of housing there consists of detached family homes, which is great if you're looking for rental houses, and not so much if you're on the hunt for apartments for rent. That said, you'll still find that about 25% of all properties in Hammonton are high-rise buildings and apartment complexes, so there's plenty for all tastes. See more
