Medford is a township in Burlington County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. As of the 2020 United States census, the township's population was 24,497,[8][9] an increase of 1,464 (+6.4%) from the 2010 census count of 23,033,[18][19] which in turn reflected an increase of 780 (+3.5%) from the 22,253 counted in the 2000 census.[20] The township, and all of Burlington County, is a part of the Philadelphia-Reading-Camden combined statistical area and the Delaware Valley.[21]
Medford was incorporated as a township by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on March 1, 1847, from portions of Evesham Township, based on the results of a referendum held that day. Portions of the township were taken to form Shamong Township (February 19, 1852), Lumberton (March 14, 1860), and Medford Lakes (May 17, 1939).[22] The township is part of the South Jersey region of the state.
