City - Newton

Nestled in the Kittatinny Valley of northwestern New Jersey, Newton is the county seat of Sussex County. Charming historic houses line Newton’s Main Street in addition to numerous public buildings and churches. Newton’s true downtown area fills Spring Street with an array of friendly shops, delectable restaurants, and cozy cafes.

The Newton Theatre also rests on Spring Street, hosting a wide variety of performances and events on a regular basis. Opportunities for outdoor recreation and engaging with nature are plentiful in Newton. Residents can hike the trails, go fishing and boating, and explore the restored 19th-century village in Kittatinny Valley State Park. Newton residents also have the option to ride horses at Spring Valley Equestrian Center and feed and pet alpacas at Little Brushwood Alpaca Farm.

The close community in Newton is drawn together by the Annual Taste of Newton as well as the nearby New Jersey State Fair and Sussex County Farm and Horse Show.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
