All of New Jersey's 566 municipalities have their own entries, a decision the editorial board made early on because of the importance of local government in the state.
It is the Encyclopedia of New Jersey, on sale April 26, six and a half pounds of pure Jerseyana, nine years in the making and worth every tick of the old Jersey City Colgate's Clock that was spent on it.

Although the movement has helped New Jersey preserve hundreds of thousands of acres of wetlands, shoreline and forest, the state has had a harder time getting towns to create neighborhoods with four or five homes per acre instead of the one or two homes found in most suburbs.
Washington Township was the first municipality in New Jersey to build a town center from the ground up, using a planning grant of about $40,000 from the state’s Office of Smart Growth.
