Red Bank is a borough in Monmouth County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. Incorporated in 1908, the community is on the Navesink River, the area's original transportation route to the ocean and other ports. Red Bank is in the New York metropolitan area and is a commuter town of New York City.[18] As of the 2020 United States census, the borough's population was 12,936,[8][9] an increase of 730 (+6.0%) from the 2010 census count of 12,206,[19][20] which in turn reflected an increase of 362 (+3.1%) from the 11,844 counted in the 2000 census.[21] In the 2020 census, Red Bank was the fourth-most densely populated municipality in Monmouth County.[9]

Red Bank was formed as a town on March 17, 1870, from parts of Shrewsbury Township. On February 14, 1879, Red Bank became Shrewsbury City, part of Shrewsbury Township; this lasted until May 15, 1879, when Red Bank regained its independence. On March 10, 1908, Red Bank was formed as a borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature and was set off from Shrewsbury Township.[22][23] The borough was named for the red soil along the Navesink River.[24][25]

Downtown Red Bank is notable for its many local and well-known businesses including Garmany, Urban Outfitters, and Tiffany & Co.[26] on and around Broad Street. Many annual events happen throughout the year, including the International Beer, Wine & Food Festival,[27] a long-running sidewalk sale,[28] a farmers' market,[29] an indie film festival,[30] the Red Bank Guinness Oyster Festival,[31] a Halloween parade,[32] and a holiday town lighting.[33]
