Location

New Jersey gives companies access to one of the most concentrated and affluent consumer markets in the world. Our State is located in the middle of the Boston – New York City – Washington, D.C. corridor, with 56.5 million residents and $3.75 trillion in economic output.

A business located in central New Jersey can serve more than 38 million consumers within a two-hour drive. You can reach 33% of the United States population within a day’s drive from any location in our State.

New Jersey’s location also provides strategic access to the world’s trade, financial and regulatory centers. Northern New Jersey is a 20-minute train ride from New York City and Southern New Jersey is right across the Delaware River from Philadelphia. It takes less time to travel from Jersey City to Wall Street than it does from Midtown Manhattan. New Jersey offers rail access to Boston in 4 hours and to Washington, D.C. in 3 hours.

The State’s unrivaled road and rail network includes 2,900 miles of interstates and highways and the nation’s highest railroad density. Newark Liberty International Airport and other nearby airports offer daily non-stop flights to over 340 nonstop domestic and 260 nonstop international destinations.  Companies located in New Jersey enjoy same day business hours with European companies and much shorter flights to Europe than California.

New Jersey is also home to the Port of New York and New Jersey, the East Coast’s largest seaport, making it easy to move products across the country or around the world.
