Cherry Hill sits just across the Delaware River from Philadelphia, offering the calm of a well-established South Jersey township without sacrificing access to a major city. Originally known as Delaware Township, it rebranded in 1961 — the same year the Cherry Hill Mall opened as the first enclosed mall on the East Coast, a distinction that still shapes its identity as a commercial hub for Camden County. The township spans a range of distinct pockets, from the transit-accessible Woodcrest area to the bustling corridor surrounding the mall, giving renters plenty of options depending on how they want to experience day-to-day life.
The rental landscape here leans toward apartment communities, garden-style complexes, and townhome rentals, with a solid mix of spacious floor plans suited to longer-term living. Employers like TD Bank and Pinnacle Foods anchor the local economy, while PATCO and NJ Transit lines make Philadelphia commutes straightforward.
