Woodlynne is a borough in Camden County, within the U.S. state of New Jersey, and a suburb located 4 miles (6.4 km) southeast of Philadelphia. As of the 2020 United States census, the borough's population was 2,902,[9] a decrease of 76 (−2.6%) from the 2,978 recorded at the 2010 census,[17][18] which in turn reflected an increase of 182 (+6.5%) from the 2,796 counted in the 2000 census.[19] The borough is the state's eighth-smallest municipality.[9] Established on the site of a defunct amusement park, the entire borough of Woodlynne is less than one-third the size of Six Flags Great Adventure and Safari.[20]

Woodlynne was incorporated as a borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on March 19, 1901, from portions of Haddon Township.[21][22] In 1906, the City of Camden made an unsuccessful attempt to annex Woodlynne.[23]

Woodlynne had the highest property tax rate in New Jersey, with an equalized rate of 7.384% in 2020, compared to a statewide average of 2.279% and 3.470% in Camden County.[24] As of the 2010 census, Woodlynne was also home to the highest percentage of Vietnamese residents in New Jersey, at 6.9%.[25]
