Hillsborough

Hillsborough was named as one of the best places to live in America for 2019, according to a new set of rankings released by Niche. Hillsborough was ranked as the 69th best place to live in New Jersey. The township is also home to the Belle Mead General Depot which was a storage site for materials during World War II. Hillsborough is home to Duke Gardens and Duke Farms, a 2,700 acres estate in the north-eastern quadrant of the town that was originally owned by tobacco and electric energy tycoon James Duke and then passed down to daughter Doris Duke, and is now one of the few remaining “preserved” natural areas in Hillsborough Township.
