About Farmingdale:

The Borough of Farmingdale in Monmouth County was incorporated as a borough on April 8, 1903, from portions of Howell Township. Farmingdale is just 60 miles south of New York City and 68 miles northeast of Philadelphia. A quiet community not far from the Jersey Shore, Farmingdale has much to offer growing families and individuals who want the best of both worlds--a rural, small-town environment with easy access to several major urban centers and all Monmouth County attractions. The borough boasts a historic Main Street with restaurants and specialty shops, as well as peaceful and safe residential neighborhoods.

One of the benefits of living in Farmingdale, NJ is that the borough is surrounded by several parks and recreation areas. Farmingdale residents have ample opportunity to enjoy the great outdoors at the Allaire State Park, the Manasquan River, and the Manasquan County Reservoir; all of which offer hiking and biking trails, boating, fishing, wildlife viewing, and camping. Allaire State Park also features a little bit of Monmouth County history, with the 19th-century ironmaking town, Allaire Village, and antique steam trains on Pine Creek Railroad. Farmingdale residents also have access to more than eight golf courses in the area, including the elegant Eagle Oaks Golf Club, featuring a championship 18-hole course designed by Jack Nicklaus and John Miller.

Education:

The Farmingdale School District serves public school students in Kindergarten through eighth grade. Farmingdale Elementary School served 154 students as of the 2005-06 school year.  Public school students in grades 9-12 attend Howell High School, as part of the Freehold Regional High School District.  The district also serves students from Colts Neck Township, Englishtown, Freehold Borough, Freehold Township, Howell Township, Manalapan Township, and Marlboro.
