Neptune is a township in Monmouth County on the east-central Jersey Shore region. As of the 2010 census, the population was 27,935 residents. There is also another community named Neptune City in Monmouth County, which has a population of approximately 5,000. That one is next to the borough of Avon-by-the-Sea. This article is about the larger Neptune Township. There are several smaller unincorporated communities within Neptune, including Ocean Grove, Shark River Hills, Mid-Town, Bradley Park, the Gables, Summerfield, Green Grove, Seaview Island and West Neptune. The Township of Neptune stretches from the Atlantic Ocean west to the Garden State Parkway. To the south of the city is the Shark River estuary and the northern border is the city of Asbury Park and Ocean Township. Neptune is a diverse community in both population and landscape. The Township has become known as the "Crossroads of the Jersey Shore," due to the major roadways which cross through it, including the Garden State Parkway's exits 100 and 102, state highways 18, 33, 35, 66 and 71. Neptune Township is also easily accessible by the New Jersey Transit trains, major bus routes and local taxi service. Therefore, if you're looking for a less-crowded, more quiet base from which to explore the Jersey Shore, the town of Neptune might be just the place for you.
