Both locations run on the Riverfront Rail line going to Camden then a jump on the Speedline into Phila. Both cities have a cute downtown area and have community events to keep people coming. Bordentown has more eateries, but Burlington continues to rejuvenate itself with the waterfront promenade; nothing like a summer evening walk along the water with a stop at Umms for homemade ice cream. Both Cafe Gallery and the Birches bring fine dining to the area. Because of their northern Burlington County location, going into Mercer County to catch the Trenton Devils or Thunders games is very convenient; and if you want to go into NYC, the train station in Trenton or Hamilton is not a far drive.dragonflytzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05829669413299826373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5892658580022477068.post-44880845171022119952009-09-08T18:30:39.187-04:002009-09-08T18:30:39.187-04:00We don't consider PPB or Bay Head to be in Sou...We don't consider PPB or Bay Head to be in South Jersey.

Adjacent to Bay Head, also on the train route, with its boutique shoppes and galleries for a change of pace.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02269292513602280851noreply@blogger.com
