Toms River, New Jersey

Toms River is a census-designated place (CDP) and unincorporated area located within Dover Township and is the county seat of Ocean County, New Jersey. The area is named for the Toms River, whose estuary flows through the community and empties into Barnegat Bay. "Toms River" can refer to the village of Toms River, a Post Office address, or to the census-designated place; it is not an incorporated municipality. It is common practice, however, for residents to refer to all of mainland Dover Township as "Toms River."

 

In 2005, Dover Township / Toms River was ranked the 15th Safest "City" in the United States by Morgan Quitno Press.  Ocean County has over 50 miles of some of the finest, most beautiful, white sandy oceanfront beaches in the world, as well as many miles of bay and riverfront beaches with quality water protection. Local municipalities provide trained lifeguards for the safety of those who make use of these beaches.
