1. Ocean County, NJ Population Survey
This survey attempts to draw data from Ocean County's population to understand where our population came from, what inspired people to move to our township, in what years we experienced higher than normal population growth, and an understanding of the overall level of satisfaction about living in Ocean County.
When completing the survey, please answer the questions on behalf of yourself if you moved to Ocean County as an adult. If you moved to Ocean County as a child or were born of parents who had moved to Ocean County , complete the survey on behalf of your parents. If both you and your parents are native residents of Toms River, then complete the survey on behalf of your most direct ancestor who moved to Ocean County (e.g., grandparents).
Please note that in no way will you be identified as having participated in this survey.
Thank you for your participation!
