The borough of Rumson, NJ is thought to have acquired its name from Native Americans who lived in the region during the 1600s. Early colonists often traded rum for Native American goods, and members of the nearby tribes began to call the area Navarumsunk. The name was later shortened to Rumson as it is called today. Celebrate with a rum toddy or a Pina Colada!
Rumson is a borough community located in the county of Monmouth, New Jersey. It is also a part of the greater New York Metropolitan Area and is located only a short distance to the south of the major metropolitan hubs of both Manhattan and Staten Island. That's right, you'll be close to the Big Apple if you live here -- just a little over an hour away. At the time of the last major census, the total population was at about 7,100 people and it is continuing to grow. Rumson experienced a notable population boom between the years 2000 and 2010, increasing in size by more than 400 citizens. The borough is bordered by two major rivers -- the Shrewsbury River to the south and the Navesink River to the north. Rumson is also less than a mile from the shimmering Atlantic Ocean. The borough is only about 40 miles northeast of the city of Philadelphia, PA, as well, making it incredibly centrally located. But location, location, location is only one of this charming town's attributes. See more
Finding an apartment in Rumson that accepts your pet may not be easy, but it’s very possible. Keep in mind, most of the time you’ll have to pay a premium for bringing your dog along in your new apartment. Some apartments require you to pay monthly pet rent, others will ask for a non-refundable pet fee or a refundable pet deposit.
While landlords and property management companies have varying pet policies, most of them limit the number of dogs you can bring to your apartment and include breed and weight restrictions.
If your pet falls under some of the restrictions outlined in the pet policy, it’s still worth asking the landlord if they can make an exception for your dog. Preparing a pet resume ahead of time could help you build the case for your furry friend. Make sure to include information on behavioral training your dog went through over the years and proof of vaccinations. If you can, include references from your former landlord and/or neighbors.
