Welcome to Bridgewater

Filled with diverse communities, this area has excellent schools and is close to all major highways

Featuring quiet neighborhoods in a beautiful countryside landscape, Bridgewater Township is synonymous with small-town living yet is also connected to some major transportation routes. Offering a sophisticated retail district and a range of recreational amenities, this 32-square-mile community borders 11 other municipalities and is often referred to as the “Pharma Capital of New Jersey” since it houses the headquarters of several biotechnology firms. 

There are 3,600 acres of public and private parks, Blue Ribbon schools, and a population of close to 45,000 residents. The Watchung Mountains pass through the township’s northeast corridor while the Raritan River forms much of Bridgewater's borders.

Homes here are a mix of single-family residences, townhomes, and condos. Prices range from affordable to high-end.
