About Roosevelt:

Roosevelt is a Borough in Monmouth County, New Jersey. The borough was established as Jersey Homesteads by an Act of the New Jersey Legislature on May 29, 1937, from portions of Millstone Township. The name was changed to Roosevelt as of November 9, 1945, based on the results of a referendum held three days earlier, in honor of Franklin D. Roosevelt, who had died on April 12, 1945. New Jersey Monthly magazine ranked Roosevelt as its 12th best place to live in its 2008 rankings of the "Best Places To Live" in New Jersey.

Roosevelt, looks pretty much as it did when it was started by the United States Department of the Interior in the late 1930's. Its streets twist around hills and stream beds, and most of its houses back up to green belts or woods, including the sprawling, 5,600 acre state-owned Assunpink Wildlife Management Area to the south. There are no traffic lights, virtually no crime, no police and little traffic on internal roads.
