The Borough of Wharton offers old-fashioned charm and a small town appeal, within its interesting borders. The 2.2 square miles of this unique place in Morris County, boasts such charm, that even the musician Cyndi Lauper couldn't resist. It was here in 1984 that she filmed her music video for her hit song "Time After Time," cementing Wharton into timelessness and music history with her.

Wharton Borough prides itself on diversity as well, in terms of its places to visit, things to do, and its population of more than 6,500 residents. Like many of the neighboring communities, Wharton found its roots and growth in the Morris Canal and was the bedroom community for those who manned the mines, blast furnaces and mills. Formed in 1895 from the communities of Port Oram, Irondale, Luxemburg, Maryville, and Mount Pleasant, and taken from portions of Randolph and Rockaway Townships, the municipality was originally known as Port Oram. It was renamed Wharton in 1902 in honor of Joseph Wharton, one of Wharton's first prominent citizens, who was heavily involved with the area's mining industry. Today, Wharton still recognizes its mining heritage and contributions to the Morris Canal, while remaining a bedroom community for those who work in places as far away as Manhattan.
