Cape May County has 16 municipalities spread across barrier islands, back bays, and the mainland at New Jersey's southern tip. The real estate mix includes Victorian homes, shore cottages, condominiums, duplexes, bayfront and oceanfront properties, and mainland single-family homes on larger lots. Ocean City, the Wildwoods, Sea Isle City, Avalon, Stone Harbor, and Cape May each have distinct resort identities, while Upper, Dennis, Middle, and Lower Townships contain a broader mix of year-round communities and coastal access. The Garden State Parkway, county shore routes, marinas, wildlife refuges, beaches, boardwalks, wineries, and preserved natural areas shape both daily life and the county's strong seasonal rhythm.
