Iselin (/ˈɪzˈlɪn/[9]) is an unincorporated community and census-designated place (CDP)[10] located within Woodbridge Township, in Middlesex County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey.[11][12][13] As of the 2010 United States census, Iselin's population was 18,695.[14]
Previously known as Perrytown and Unionville, Iselin received its current name after New York City investment banker and philanthropist Adrian Iselin, who established a finishing school in the 1870s for girls from wealthy New York families there.[15] Iselin additionally subsidized the erection of a new train station which was replaced by a newer station to the south known as Metropark.[16][17] The largest bordering town of Iselin is Edison.
