A historic small town in Southampton Township
Small-town America prevails in Vincentown, a tiny, walkable village in New Jersey's Southampton Township. Tucked between Mount Holly and Medford, two of South Jersey's most popular communities, Vincentown is a quaint, often-overlooked enclave along U.S. Route 206. "Southampton has two main communities: Vincentown, which has a nice historic Main Street, and Leisuretown, which is one of the most popular 55-plus communities in South Jersey," says Misty Watson, a local Realtor and member of The John Wuertz Team at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Fox & Roach Realtors. "The rest of the township is primarily rural, with many horse farms." Along Main Street, mature oaks and maples dot paved sidewalks, while historic buildings offer a step back in time. Local green spaces cater to residents, and a large pond, formerly home to 19th-century mills, is a community centerpiece. Just outside the village, acres of farmland and pineland are interspersed with pockets of residential development, offering residents the quintessential small-town lifestyle on the cusp of the New Jersey Pine Barrens. "The thing about South Jersey is that it's a homegrown area," Watson says. "You grow up here, move away for college, get married, then move back home."
Historic farmhouses, colonial- and Victorian-style homes
Many of Vincentown's homes date back to the 19th century. Most of the village, approximately 92 acres, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Village residents number around 600, and most homes are clustered along Main Street. Tree-lined streets give way to an eclectic mix, albeit a seamless blend of colonial- and Victorian-style homes with ornate detailing. Traditional South Jersey farmhouses with roomy front porches stand tall next to cozy bungalows and Saltbox homes with asymmetrical rooflines. Duplexes are scattered around the village, while 20th-century Cape Cods and ramblers on the outskirts of Vincentown highlight the community's development across the centuries. Many properties boast modest backyards, detached garages and paved driveways, and others rely on street parking. Restored, turnkey properties typically range from the low to high $300,000s, with some houses selling for as low as $200,000 and as high as $600,000, depending on square footage and interior upgrades. Vincentown's CAP Index is a 1 out of 10, the lowest possible score, compared to the national average of 4.

Ponds, parks, pine barrens, horse barns and beaches
Vincentown Millpond is a prominent community focal point that feeds into the Rancocas Creek. Over the years, generations of residents have flocked to the pond to swim, fish, kayak and canoe. Yet this popular waterway also poses potential flood risks. Saw Mill Park features green spaces and picnic areas that hug the pond's northern point. The park features a public parking lot that sits adjacent to the village's historic 1860 William K. Haines schoolhouse. Farther north, Trinity Episcopal Church, established in 1868, stands out along the creek with its arched roof and dark green doors and shutters.
A couple of blocks down the road, Vincentown residents can explore the Eagles' Walk, a 2-mile shaded creekside loop. A short walk away, paved walking paths, sports fields, and a duck pond await at Red Lion Recreation Park. Just outside the village proper, Southampton Township Recreation Area features a town hall, sports courts, a ball field, a playground and a picnic pavilion.
Vincentown residents can readily embrace New Jersey's horse country at one of the several horse-riding schools and boarding stables within a 10-mile radius of the village. Situated far east of the Delaware River, Vincentown residents are also less than 50 miles from the New Jersey Pine Barrens' sprawling state forests and Long Beach Island's white sand beaches.
Vincentown Millpond in Saw Mill Park is a centrally located national resource for the community.

Horse farms, farmers markets, event venues and wineries
In addition to riding stables, Vincentown offers an assortment of rural-feeling amenities. For instance, many area farms offer pick-your-own produce or roadside farm stands. Clover Valley Farm is known for its homegrown beef and chicken, as well as farm-fresh eggs and local honey. The farm also hosts a seasonal Sunday farmers market, inviting local vendors from around the state.Many farms sell floral bouquets and homemade artisan goods or serve as event venues. Bamboo Gardens is one of the only event venues in Vincentown, yet this serene campground also hosts public events, such as summer movie nights. Others utilize their land for vineyards, opening up wineries like Demastro Vineyards and Stokelan Estate Winery.

Southampton Township's two school districts
Two school districts serve the community: Southampton Township School District, which scores an overall B-minus from Niche, and Lenape Regional High School District, which scores an A-minus. Elementary and middle schoolers share a campus in the heart of Vincentown. Kindergarteners through second graders may attend Southampton Township School No. 1, which is not yet rated on Niche. B-minus-rated Southampton Township School No. 2 serves third through fifth graders, and B-minus-rated Southampton Township School No. 3 serves sixth through eighth graders.

Vincentown staples and nearby amenities
Several small businesses are scattered between historic residences and the Village Green, a small park along Main Street. Massimo's Pizzeria is the community's sole eatery, and is known for its hoagies, Sicilian pies and the original Tarantini Panzarotti, a pocket of dough with cheese and tomato enclosed inside. Wawa sits alongside U.S. Route 206 on the east side of Vincentown, while 3 miles north, Vincentown Diner was established in 1952 as a no-frills, old-school diner. Today, it serves up a little bit of everything, including classic brunch options, gourmet burgers, beef birria quesadillas, chicken croquettes and favorites like the Mile High Meatloaf, which was featured on the Food Network's show “Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives” in 2016.Additional restaurants, grocers and retailers like Walmart Supercenter dot New Jersey State Route 38, about 6 miles northwest of Vincentown. Village residents are also about 5 miles from Medford's grocers and amenities. Eleven miles away, Mount Laurel Township is home to additional big-box stores, including Costco Wholesale.
The Vincentown Diner has been serving the Vincentown community since 1953, with quality meals and most ingredients locally sourced.

Events in Southampton and Medford townships
Since 1958, Vincentown residents have gathered on both sides of Main Street to celebrate the annual Memorial Day Parade. The parade features marching bands, twirlers, tractors and antique automobiles gliding down Main Street. Five miles away, crowds balloon in size when kids and adults dressed up in costumes make their way down Medford's Main Street during the Medford Vincentown Rotary Club Halloween Parade. "The parade attracts over 20,000 people every year," Watson says. "It used to just be for the community, but then it spread all over the local Facebook pages. Now, people come from all over the place." About 10 miles south of the village, Medford Lakes hosts additional festivities that draw residents from around South Jersey. "They have over 20 lakes in this little borough," Watson says. "It started as a seasonal summer community, but now it's year-round. There are still summer camps, and they host a Canoe Carnival every August." Canoes triple in size with the addition of hand-built, light-up floats that often hang over the edge or are sometimes supported by two separate canoes.
