About Barrington
Barrington is a quiet, close-knit South Jersey community located about twenty minutes east of Center City Philadelphia. Home to roughly 7,000 residents, the borough offers a classic suburban feel with tree-lined streets, established single-family homes, and a relaxed pace. Getting around is easy thanks to quick access to Route 30, the White Horse Pike, and Interstate 295. Families with school-age children use the local borough district for kindergarten through eighth grade, after which students attend high school in neighboring Haddon Heights.
The town dates back to the late 1800s and was once well known across the region as the longtime home of Edmund Scientific. Today, Barrington retains that grounded charm, with pocket parks, local bakeries, and casual spots to eat along Clements Bridge Road. Residents also enjoy being right next door to the lively downtowns of Haddonfield and Collingswood. For anyone looking for an affordable, convenient spot in Camden County, Barrington makes a comfortable and practical home base.
