Freehold, New Jersey
Freehold Township is a Township in Monmouth County, New Jersey, United States. As of the 2010 United States Census, the township population was 36,184. Freehold Township was first formed on October 31, 1693, and was incorporated as a township by an Act of the New Jersey Legislature on February 21, 1798. Portions of Freehold Township were taken to form Upper Freehold Township (c. 1731), Millstone Township (February 28, 1844), Jackson Township (March 6, 1844), Atlantic Township (February 18, 1847; now Colts Neck Township), Marlboro Township (February 17, 1848) and Manalapan Township (March 9, 1848).
The Battle of Monmouth was fought in what has been preserved as Monmouth Battlefield State Park, which is in Freehold Township and Manalapan. Freehold Township is sometimes incorrectly credited as the hometown of American Rock and Roll legend Bruce Springsteen, who actually spent his childhood in Freehold Borough, the downtown district at the heart of the township.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the township has a total area of 38.73 square miles (100.3 km2), of which 38.50 square miles (99.7 km2) is land and 0.22 square miles (0.57 km2), or 0.57%, is water. East Freehold (2000 Census population of 4,936) and West Freehold (12,498) are census-designated places and unincorporated areas located within Freehold Township. The New Jersey municipality of Upper Freehold Township is not connected, geographically or politically, to the township. Also, the township completely surrounds the borough of Freehold.
