Burlington County Data Book, 2010 Edition
Preface
elcome to the Burlington County Data Book, 2010 Edition! This is an update of the
Department of Economic Development and Regional Planning’s 2002 statistical profile of
Burlington County and its 40 constituent municipalities. This book aims to provide essential
Burlington County data useful to a wide audience, ranging from planners to developers to
prospective businesses and to the general public. While containing a wealth of information culled
primarily from the most recent decennial census, the Data Book is not meant to replicate the
detailed picture of our county and towns that Census 2000 painted. Future editions of the Data
Book will see updated and increased content from Census 2010, as well as format changes.
Major updates to this edition include: population estimates for 2007; land use data as of 2005;
and building permit data through 2007. Population estimates for 2007 were obtained from the
US Census Bureau and the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission. Building permit
data were obtained from the New Jersey Department of Labor, the US Census Bureau, and the
Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission. The 2005 land use data were obtained from
the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission.
The Burlington County Data Book, 2010 Edition was prepared by the Burlington County
Department of Economic Development and Regional Planning, Mark A. Remsa, Director.
David J. Hojsak, Principal Planner, was the project manager. Edward E. Fox, III, Regional
Planning Coordinator, provided valuable feedback. Merrilee Torres, GIS Specialist in the
Burlington County Department of Information Technology, provided the graphics that
accompany the individual profile pages.
