Hazlet

County: Monmouth

Once a sweeping expanse of rich farmland, Hazlet Township nestles in northeastern Monmouth County and extends to the bay shoreline.  Because its development as a suburban area began in the 1950s, many of the single-family homes that dominate this area are relatively new construction.  Multi-family developments are limited, creating a hometown atmosphere of tranquil neighborhoods.  Local retail facilities are abundant, and the numerous shops of Monmouth Mall are easily accessible.  Preserved open space, excellent schools, and a pleasing selection of housing are all hallmarks of Hazlet.  In addition to an active parks and recreation department, residents have easy access to county and state parks.
