Camden County · Shared community guide
Waterford
Including Atco, Chesilhurst and Waterford Works.
Waterford Township is a largely residential and semi-rural Camden County municipality centered on Atco, the White Horse Pike and the Pinelands edge. Atco and Waterford Works are local community/postal names used within and around Waterford Township. Chesilhurst is a separate incorporated borough immediately adjoining the township, but NJTGO groups it into this shared guide for convenience.
The result is one practical guide for the places residents and visitors commonly search together, while clearly identifying which listings are in Waterford Township and which are in Chesilhurst Borough.
