Cranbury is a township in southern Middlesex County, within the U.S. state of New Jersey. As of the 2020 United States census, the township's population was 3,842,[9] a decrease of 15 (−0.4%) from the 2010 census count of 3,857,[18][19] which in turn reflected an increase of 630 (+19.5%) from the 3,227 counted in the 2000 census.[20]

Located within the Raritan Valley region, Cranbury is roughly equidistant between New York City and Philadelphia, contributing to it being a regional historical, cultural, and commercial hub of Central New Jersey (the township is known for its logistics industry) and as an outer-ring commuter suburb of New York City within the New York metropolitan area.[21][22][23] The municipal taxes generated by the industrial properties have helped to keep residential property taxes steady over time.

Adding Ratables - Cranbury's low municipal tax rate is partially the result of the township establishing a robust warehouse district that, in the past decade, welcomed Wayfair, Amazon and Home Depot...Both Route 130 and the New Jersey Turnpike run through the small Middlesex County township, making it an ideal location.
