All Roads Lead to Mount Holly
Mount Holly is located only
20 miles from the State Capital in Trenton and 20 miles from Center City Philadelphia.
With the NJ Turnpike and Routes 295 and 206 within easy reach, Mount Holly is
right in the middle of what's happening.
2. Abundant
Foot Traffic
As the Burlington County seat and home to
the County's premier hospital, over 5,000 professionals works, shop, and dine
in downtown Mount Holly. Add that number to the many clients and visitors utilizing
their services and you can see why foot traffic is not a problem.
3.
Centralized Downtown
Mount Holly is surrounded by the communities
of Eastampton, Westampton, Hainesport, and Lumberton. Their combined population
of over 28,000 residents in addition to 544 newly erected housing units, are within
a 5-minute drive of Mount Holly's downtown businesses. Because these communities
lack their own centralized downtown, they treasure downtown Mount Holly as their
own.
4. Free Parking
With hundreds
of free parking spaces in downtown Mount Holly, there is a space for you. No meters,
no hassles. Just acres of parking within walking distance to every downtown business.
5.
Clean, Safe, Inviting
The Township funds five Downtown
Walking & Bicycle Patrols and a Downtown Clean Team, who maintain a clean
and safe downtown environment for your business and customers. You only have to
take care of your own property. Leave the rest to us!

The history of Mount Holly predates the American
Revolution by nearly 100 years. More than just a charming little community tucked

are included in our Nationally Registered Historic District.
