Small-town feel in a charming suburban setting

Suburban Family-Friendly Historic Community Commuter

The Camden County borough that is Magnolia may seem like your typical northern suburb, but this New Jersey locale has all the charm and character of a secluded small town, albeit it’s far from remote. Residents enjoy a variety of homes ranging from two-story Colonials to adorable cottages with colorful front porches. Tree-lined streets house a few locally-owned businesses, and for holidays — especially July 4th — the whole town is adorned with festive decorations.

Magnolia is popular with families, as there’s an active community that watches out for one another. It’s not all about peace and quiet, however. There are plenty of shopping malls, movie theaters, breweries, and more just outside the borough’s borders. And Philadelphia is just a 30-minute drive away, making Magnolia perfect for the frequent city-goer who still appreciates the tranquility of the suburbs.
