Silver Ridge, NJ

Silver Ridge is an unincorporated census-designated place within Berkeley Township, in Ocean County, west of the Garden State Parkway. It belongs to the township's Pinelands-side landscape, where Silver Ridge and Holiday City form established adult communities among wetlands and open space. The larger municipal map reaches from that inland side to Barnegat Bay and the barrier island, with Berkeley Township beaches and parks including Double Trouble State Park, Berkeley Island County Park, and the Robert J. Miller Airpark. For Silver Ridge, the useful local frame is the contrast between an established residential community and a township that stretches from pine country to bay and ocean.
