Waterford Township Homes for Rent

Waterford Township, nestled alongside the expansive Wharton State Forest, provides a serene suburban lifestyle with a small-town atmosphere. The neighborhood is characterized by its lush green spaces, farmland, and local produce stands. U.S. Route 30 connects Waterford Township to the rest of Camden County, while maintaining a secluded feel with its mom-and-pop shops and residential streets. Homes here range from early 1900s traditional ranch-style, bi-level, and Cape Cod-style houses to modern new traditional homes, most featuring attached garages and manicured lawns on lots averaging just under half an acre. Townhome developments from the 1980s and 1990s are also available. The Waterford Township School District serves younger students, while older students attend the Hammonton Public School District. Residents are about 24 miles from Philadelphia and 40 miles from Atlantic City, with NJ Transit providing convenient train service. Dining options include China Max, Whims Brewing, and Racks Pub & Grill, while Palladino’s Market and Atco Avenue offer local favorites. Recreational features include the Ritter Field Sports Complex, Atco Playground, and the Marilyn Beard Trailhead Park, which connects to the Wharton State Forest for hiking, biking, and horseback riding. Community events are hosted by the Waterford Township Civic & Events Association, with activities like free summer concerts, Oktoberfest, and Winter on the Avenue at Lions Park.
