Allentown is a borough located in western Monmouth County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey, bordering adjacent Mercer County. As of the 2020 United States census, the borough's population was 1,734,[9] a decrease of 94 (−5.1%) from the 2010 census count of 1,828,[18][19] which in turn reflected a decline of 54 (−2.9%) from the 1,882 counted in the 2000 census.[20] The borough is nestled within central New Jersey, and is roughly equidistant between New York City and Philadelphia.

History

Allentown was incorporated as a borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on January 29, 1889, from portions of Upper Freehold Township, based on the results of a referendum held that day.[21] The borough was named for settler Robert Burnet's son-in-law, Nathan Allen[22] or for William Allen, who served as Chief Justice of the Province of Pennsylvania.[23]

Geography

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the borough had a total area of 0.62 square miles (1.61 km2), including 0.60 square miles (1.54 km2) of land and 0.03 square miles (0.06 km2) of water (4.03%).[1][2]

Allentown borders the municipalities of Upper Freehold Township in Monmouth County and Robbinsville Township in Mercer County.[24][25][26]

Economy

Downtown Allentown

Allentown's shopping district has antique and specialty shops, as well as restaurants. Many historic homes and historic buildings are located in the borough. The Horse Park of New Jersey is a park located near the borough but does have an Allentown mailing address. Heritage Park is located within the borough near the shopping district.

The borough received the 'Village Center' designation in 2002, which will allow the borough to receive additional state aid aimed at preserving historic and natural resource sites that are at risk.[27][28]

For larger scaled shopping, Freehold Raceway Mall in nearby Freehold, Quaker Bridge Mall in nearby Lawrence, and Princeton Market Fair in nearby Princeton, are a short distance away.

Government

Local government

Allentown is governed under the borough form of New Jersey municipal government, which is used in 218 municipalities (of the 564) statewide, making it the most common form of government in New Jersey.[36] The governing body is comprised of the mayor and the borough council, with all positions elected at-large on a partisan basis as part of the November general election. The mayor is elected directly by the voters to a four-year term of office. The borough council includes six members elected to serve three-year terms on a staggered basis, with two seats coming up for election each year in a three-year cycle.[6] The borough form of government used by Allentown is a "weak mayor / strong council" government in which council members act as the legislative body with the mayor presiding at meetings and voting only in the event of a tie. The mayor can veto ordinances subject to an override by a two-thirds majority vote of the council. The mayor makes committee and liaison assignments for council members, and most appointments are made by the mayor with the advice and consent of the council.[37][38]

As of 2024, the mayor of Allentown is Independent Thomas C. Fritts, whose term of office ends December 31, 2027. Members of the Borough Council are Council President Erica DeKranes (I, 2026), Nikki A. Darling (I, 2024), Michael Drennan (I, 2024), John A. Elder III (I, 2026), Martha A. Johnson (I, 2025) and Daniel Payson (I, 2025).[3][39][40][41][42]

With only one candidate on the ballot for the two available seats in the November 2021 general election, Nikki Darling won a seat on the borough council after receiving 159 write-in votes.[43]

Federal, state, and county representation

Allentown is located in the 3rd Congressional district[44] and is part of New Jersey's 12th state legislative district.[45][46][47]

For the 118th United States Congress, New Jersey's 3rd congressional district is represented by Andy Kim (D, Moorestown).[48] New Jersey is represented in the United States Senate by Democrats Cory Booker (Newark, term ends 2027)[49] and George Helmy (Mountain Lakes, term ends 2024).[50][51]

For the 2024-2025 session, the 12th legislative district of the New Jersey Legislature is represented in the State Senate by Owen Henry (R, Old Bridge Township) and in the General Assembly by Robert D. Clifton (R, Matawan) and Alex Sauickie (R, Jackson Township).[52]

Monmouth County is governed by a Board of County Commissioners composed of five members who are elected at-large to serve three-year terms of office on a staggered basis, with either one or two seats up for election each year as part of the November general election. At an annual reorganization meeting held in the beginning of January, the board selects one of its members to serve as director and another as deputy director.[53] As of 2024, Monmouth County's Commissioners are Director Thomas A. Arnone (R, Neptune City, 2025),[54] Susan M. Kiley (R, Hazlet Township, 2024),[55] Erik Anderson (R, Shrewsbury, 2026),[56] Nick DiRocco (R, Wall Township, 2025),[57] and Deputy Director Ross F. Licitra (R, Marlboro Township, 2026).[58][59][60]
