Toms River is the seat of Ocean County government and there are many gated retirement communities in the area, so you're sure to find a good job here if you're an attorney or a physician. If not, you may have to look elsewhere to find a job, as I did. That said, I've lived here h ...Read More

Toms River, NJ is a wonderful place to visit. With that being said, I was born and raised in NJ and find it to be a great place. Toms River is actually a small city located right along the River.

ry focus of the city is not actually the river that passes through. Although there are plenty of places to enjoy boating or other water activities, the primary focus in Toms River is the beautiful middle to upper class neighborhoods and wide selection of dining and shopping options.
Toms River offers many shopping options mostly in the form of malls and strip malls. Restaurants are plentiful and delicious New York style pizza is quite common, in addition Italian Bistro, French Cuisine and Greek can all be found. Sports Bars & Grilles are also very common here in addition to every major chain restaurant that I have ever seen! Toms River makes a great place to visit for the weekend or to relocate to! I would recommend Toms River for families, couples or even individuals; to those who enjoys a fast paced lifestyle.
