What is an unincorporated community?

An unincorporated community is an area that does not have its own municipal government. Such areas are within the political and administrative jurisdiction of a city, borough, township, town or village. There are currently 184 unincorporated communities in New Jersey. Examples: Basking Ridge is within the incorporated Township of Bernards, Short Hills is within the incorporated Township of Millburn. (Interesting facts: Bernards Township does not have its own zip code. Short Hills’ population is greater than Millburn’s.)
