Middlesex County · Township guide
South Brunswick
South Brunswick Township stretches across more than 41 square miles and brings together five principal communities — Dayton, Deans, Kendall Park, Monmouth Junction and Kingston — with major Route 1, Route 27 and Route 130 corridors, extensive parks and trails, established neighborhoods and a large employment base.
Because postal names and municipal borders do not always match here — especially along Route 27 and in Kingston — this guide uses the South Brunswick township line, not the mailing city, when deciding what belongs in the local directories.
South Brunswick at a glance

Five communities, one township
South Brunswick is not centered on one single downtown. Its identity is spread across five long-established community names that appear in postal addresses, schools, shopping areas and neighborhood references.
Residential neighborhoods, Georges Road businesses and the Route 130 side of the township.
A smaller community associated with Deans Rhode Hall Road and the township's eastern interior.
Large residential areas and a major Route 27 restaurant, retail and services corridor.
Municipal offices, schools, Route 1 commerce, Ridge Road businesses and Woodlot Park.
A historic village split by Route 27; only the South Brunswick side belongs in this guide.

The district operates preschool, elementary, middle and high-school programs across the township. Attendance assignments can change, so families should use the district's current street-assignment tools rather than relying on neighborhood assumptions.
