Juliustown, NJ

Juliustown is a Burlington County census-designated place in Springfield Township, southeast of Mount Holly and just outside the Fort Dix reservation. The village was settled in 1693, originally called Houghton, and took its later name from Julius Ewan, an early landowner. A post office opened in 1812; by 1834 the village had a tavern, two stores, and thirty dwellings, and an old rail line later gave it a station. That is a Burlington County pattern: a post town and farming settlement that grew along roads without becoming an incorporated municipality.

Today the local map is road-centered. County Route 669 runs through Main Street in Juliustown, linking the village with Juliustown–Georgetown, Juliustown–Jobstown, and Juliustown–Pemberton roads. Springfield Township retains a strong agricultural character, with much of its land rated as prime farmland and county preservation work extending near Juliustown Road. Springfield Township School District and Northern Burlington Regional serve the CDP. The local scoop is a historic post town inside working farm country, close to Fort Dix but shaped by county roads and township government.
